Friend says that i can push this givin that @ this level buy-in their should be 1 more person going all in plus with dead money in pot. Can i call for set value for my stack this early in a tournament?

I would call for set value if CO didn't gayraise. After that just let it go because you're not the one closing the action and the blinds or one of the limpers could easily reraise or even push like they did here.

It's close but what JP said. There will be a reraise too often behind.

Just fold.

Lol - limp train, minraise calling train, then it gets back to the guy who closes the action and he shoves aft er limping 3rd in. I would have folded this both times.

Another point worth mentioning is that you shouldnt be playing the $1.25 unless the rake is 10% or less of the total buyin. If it is something like 1+0.25 or 1.05 + 20 that is too high (percentage wise) - move up as soon as your BR allows, as Im sure the play will be similar at the next level

Fold, and move up to the 2.25's

Fold to the minraise so you don't get reraised by someone behind you. As played, fold to the all-in.
