Default Giving up to Early?

I wanted to know if I gave this hand up too early or how you some of you would play this. This was the second hand I was dealt after being moved so I had no reads available. We were down to under 1,000 players at this point and the previous table was fairly tight.

I struggle with hands like this I think. From my Limit games I guess I get the idea this needs to be raised but I guess maybe not in a NL tourney?? Also I do concede that If i'm going to raise, it probably needs to be more than this to discourage people from calling.... I don't really know why I raised this, I think I must have used the slider bar thing and not gotten it to 450. Thanks for the help.


Party Poker 40k guaranteed No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (10 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is UTG with T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t375</font>, <font color="#666666">7 folds</font>, SB calls t300, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>.

Flop: (t900) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

Turn: (t1400) A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero checks.

River: (t1400) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets t1100</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: t2500

I made the flop bet assuming this was my only opportunity to win the hand. Either he'd come over the top or fold. The call kinda throws me and I pretty much concede the hand at that point absent of reads on the sb.
