Default Lossing at O8 limit, I think I\'m too tight, too passive

I've been winning at limit hold'em and worked my way up to 3/6, I'm at about 2BB/100 after 150k hands.

I was reading about players making 6BB/100 at O8. So, I recently started to give the micros a try at O8 and after 4k hands I'm beginning to suspect I'm a losser (although I realize 4K is not that big of a sample).

4K hands VPIP 21%, W$WSF% 22% -2 BB/100 (rake 2.1 BB/100 in my defense lol)

It appears I'm not winning enough pots, I think it's because I'm folding too much and to a lesser extent I'm playing to passive.

Here's a hand that I thought was borderline, wanted to fold, but fighting that urge, I bet the flop for information, didn't get any and then call down.
