Default $16: Good push with 88?

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t100 (9 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t1540)
UTG+1 (t1540)
MP1 (t1405)
MP2 (t1245)
MP3 (t2700)
CO (t1535)
Hero (t785)
SB (t1358)
BB (t1392)

Preflop: Hero is in Button with 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">UTG folds</font>, <font color="gray">UTG+1 folds</font>, <font color="red">MP1 raises to t300</font>, <font color="gray">MP2 folds</font>, <font color="gray">MP3 folds</font>, CO calls t300, <font color="red">Hero raises to t785 (All-in)</font>

Is this okay? I'm hoping that I only get one caller, since I'm clearly lacking fold equity, and that the extra dead money in the pot makes this a profitable push.

It all depends on their ranges. This is usually fine tho.

I was going to say, "oh sure" but then I noticed the 2nd limper. I fold this here and wait for another spot. MP1 probably calls as the raiser and then CO calls becaues of huge pot odds.
