There will be plenty of horrible hands calling you - this is the reason you raise, you make them play their hands badly as much as possible. This is a Loose/Passive game, he said (and I believe he said it was live, so the players are probably even worse.)

You're going to have the best starting hand often here when it's short handed like this. The raise is easy. You want to call if it's full ring UTG, though.
