Pre Flop: (t0) Hero is SB with A of hearts K of diamonds
1 fold, Player7 calls t0, 1 fold, Player9 calls t0, 3 folds, Hero raises to t1891, 3 folds

Well I did shove here cause if I would raise to 400 then I was convinced that I would get 2 calllers in this situation+ if I would miss the flop then would 400 be an big chunk of my stack.

Did make my shove sernce?

I can’t actually tell the size of your raise relative to the blinds, but I do think you could improve the way you’re thinking about the situation. You are focusing only on a worst-case scenario. What if you raise and get 2+ calls and don’t miss? What if you raise and get 2+ calls and an AXX flop when someone else has an Ace? What if you raise and get 2+ calls and flop the nut flush draw and bet and get called and shove the turn and get a fold and win a much larger pot without showdown?
