MTT Bubble 11/6/2005

I was doing okay, hanging out near the bubble, but on the right side of it. Until this hand. Talk about a passive play. How can I put him on this? It doesn't seem like a trap, but it sure took me down pretty far. I ended up out of the money, 44th out of 339 when my 88 ran into QQ. Thoughts?

I just have a problem with him limping along. I HATE passive plays like this. Granted, it worked, but I think it is pretty bad form, late in a tourney. Thoughts?
