I'd raise to $1.50

There's two-to-a-straight and two-to-a-flush on the board, so your two pair is vulnerable, and you don't want to give them odds to draw to those hands.

A slow played overpair or A/9 will probably stack here.
The only thing you're fearing is a set. If someone shoves on you after your raise, then you can consider that a possibility. But this hand is way too weak to slowplay.

So would all in be over-kill or is that fine with the size of the pot?

I'd just shove at this point. You have what, $3.33 left in a $4.67 pot?
Any bet you make commits you.

If someone has K/9 or 8/9 for a bigger two pair, or 8/8 for a set, oh well. Them's the breaks.
