I think the baluga theorem can work fairly well as a reasoning for this hand given the context of a micro stakes game. I just don't feel like villain will ever make this play light especially in a multiway pot so while I like your double barrel for value I'd be folding to a raise.

Even with the shallow stack depth I agree with Matt about the Baluga theorem being at play.

Villain has no need to be raising worse, and is unlikely to be bluffing frequently enough. Turn raises will almost always be two pair or better when there's not many combos of draws out there.

Apart from that the two value bets were fine, I just would have made them slightly larger.
