Default Stars $16 - 88 on the button with 1 limper

I think this was the 27th hand of the of the tourney and it was the second time villain had vp$iped. The first time he also limped. So his range looks pretty stong and may even include AA/KK looking to trap. I figured my 8s didn't look too good against his range but folding 88 on the button is hard to do in an unraised pot.

Can we limp and try to hit a set?

Can pushing possibly be profitable here?

Can Batman escape from the Joker's trap?

ugh, this is really only the 2nd time he has limped?
1) No way we only have 10x.
2) Maybe.
3) Yes, but shoving isn't bad either.

Well I think a limp is the worst option here. With the 350 in the pot already I think we have to push. UTG probably folds here often enough to make this a profitable play.
