Default Short Stacked - All In Correct Here?

PokerStars $5+$1, around 400 people out of 1385 left. Average stack for the tourney at this point is around 5500 chips, blinds are about to go up in 4 minutes (currently 100/200). I think the biggest stacks of the tourney were up in the 20K-30K range.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (9 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Button (t5665)
SB (t2595)
Hero (t1335)
UTG (t8148)
UTG+1 (t1470)
MP1 (t6690)
MP2 (t8445)
MP3 (t3537)
CO (t1440)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG calls t200, UTG+1 calls t200, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t400</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls t200, UTG calls t200, UTG+1 folds.

I'm being offered 5.5-1 pot odds. The pre-flop raise was not out of the ordinary, that player was aggressive and was capable of raising with a variety of hands in that position. So I think I'm at best up against high cards. I call because I think time is running short, I'm short-stacked, I'm getting good odds, and I have to make a move here with the blinds moving up if I want a chance at all to get back in the tourney.

Flop: (t1500) 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets t600</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t935</font>, UTG folds, Button calls t335.

I'm 1.9 to 1 to hit the flush (which I think will win the hand) by the river and pot odds are 3.5 to 1 right now. If I call, I'm only left with a couple chips so I figure I'll put it all-in with the button more than likely going to call. I can either triple up here or die trying.

Does this all look OK to you?
