Finally we get some actual discussion. Of course the whole OP including the preflop line was meant as a joke to get the thread started.
As always you should think what you would like to accomplish with your preflop raise. Often you want a heads-up pot with position. Then think how to achieve that. 3x+1 or 4x+1 are just standard lines that often work. With 2x+1 you give setminers excellent odds and you most likely end up in a multiway pot.
