The flop was not very good for me. It is possible that he was beating me on the turn; But I beat him in the river.

You were very lucky in that hand Alberto, you were lucky too because they were not aggressive, you were shortstack Allin was also a good idea
I think if the villain made a pot size bet you would have foldedToo much good luck to me mackmasterss. Because with that flop I was almost lost. So I say the river saved me. LOL. Often I am never lucky with the last card but this time it was my turn. Greetings my friend.
For example, if you had played those hands with me I would not let you reach or see the river, you know me
Dissecting the whole hand here. With 30 or so big blinds I would not be raising 3.5x as I think since you are UTG 2.5x here is better. Saves you a bit when the flop comes as it does or some other reason happens that you would not want to continue. On the flop I am a little torn between C betting and not C betting as we are likely beat here but it also is a range we can rep. I think either way is a good move as long as when you do bet it is on the smaller side.
On the turn I think we probably have to lead otherwise our hand is face up but if I led here it would be on the small side and not much bigger than 40% of pot. I am not on board with the check call especially to a bet size that was made because you are beat here often and drawing to two cards only. I would think most likley villain has a king in this spot but I dont think that is a hand I could get them off of at this point. I would not be calling villains bet here and it is best to just fold and give up.
On the river as played I like checking to see if we can induce a bluff from our opponent. I don't put him on an ace here and with the diamonds coming in they might fold a king. I would play it most likely as a check call as long as villains bet is large enough. Not terrible by any means to lead there but I think we probably get more value in the long run by checking and seeing if they will bluff the river.
Why did you open 3.5x?
You played this hand very badly.
You have to bet and bet a lot on the flop.
On the turn too.
Then you can bluff on the river.
