Correct play
Raise 1×You hold a high card (Jack through Ace), which is worth 2 points on its own — enough to clear the 1× raise threshold. Raise one unit and see the first community card.
Raising the minimum keeps you in cheaply on a hand with real upside without over-committing before you've seen a single community card.
