Did I make mistakes here?

Okay, the outcome of this hand surprised me so just want to know what you guys think of my play really.
I raised pre-flop to try get it heads up for the flop (atruered seemed to be a very tight player so I figured he would fold to any bet, unless he actually had something). I know my raise size maybe could have been bigger here.
Standard play on the turn I think after hitting my ace, 1/2 pot size bet was called.
The 9 on the river paired the board, which could have given him a set. For some reason I was putting him on a low pocket pair though, so decided to shove. Probably a bit hasty - would be interested to know what sort of cards you guys would put him on at this point (before he called my shove).

Happy to see a call.... happy to see them fold.
As played theres nothing you could do to get away from it, but yeah I open jam.
Just shove preflop!
Any stack below 10 big blinds is just shove or fold preflop.
still don't like the play though because we miss the flop 2 out of 3 times and I don't particularly want to shove with ace high or give him the chance to catch something. Prefer to get it all in pre take the 25% increase in our stack (if he folds) or see him call and be the favourite a lot of the time (or flip at worst).
and flop comes 9 5 2 or A 3 T or 7 Q 6 or 8 5 6
Would you ever be folding any of these hands on any of these boards with 350 chips and the pot is 1.3k?
FWIW we're trying to price the btn in, inducing him to shove over us pf and if he flats, he's committed on the flop regardless.
I.E. If he's the type to limp/call JT, then he's probbably the type to fold a missed flop. Just get him to commit the lot now as an underdog. If by shoving we can make him fold 22/33/44 maybe then hey that's even better.
Shoving is obviously fine.
Back to the hand in question, it would not be a 3bet as the guy had limped, so it would be a raise vs a limp, and to be quite honest, with him limping his hand is weak and remember he's missing that flop 67% of the time so I don't actually mind that he calls us for us to then donk jam the flop.
As this was a DYM, then the emphasis is on survival so I would just shove.
Having said that, if one of them went all-in pre-flop, then I would have called. As played, I shoved when I hit the flop.
