Default [PS 16+1 (18)] I should have folded, but didn\'t:. Now what?

This is not a pat on the back, but two hands that really made me nervous, even given the outcome. But, someone I respect says "Money in NL doesn't come from big pairs, but from cracking them."

Clearly, I got lucky here. So early in the tourney, do you put guys on aces with this action? Fold pf? On the flop? On the turn? Should he have called? This is technically not a stt, but an 18 seat. The action in one of these seems to play a lot like a 9 seat, especially early. I thought he missed on the flop, thought at the turn I might be in trouble, but felt I had to make a play on the river after the check.

Thanks for any input. I know I sucked out, just wanted some input.

I was 1/2 expecting to see KQ from UTG+1, but felt like I had to bet it when he didn't on the river.
