Crikey, lot of opinions here. The raise to 3k is the best option imo. Leaves your options open and gives you opportunities. The problem with limp/re-raising is that the table is strong. If you limp UTG you are broadcasting to the table that you have JJ+/AQ+ and a raise from a tight table is unlikely.
MY choices in order of strength.

1) Raise to 3k
2) Ship all-in.......i call with AQ in late position here as its probable UTG is feeling the pinch and panicking.
3) Limp/Re-raise. I appreciate on a table of normal aggression this is the BEST play. But calling, then seeing a flop of 567 and having to release a premium hand here isnt the best play.

 Im with Highstacks here, you want to win the comp and get chips, play it aggressively.
