Default Small set. Did I chicken out?

This hand came up tonight and made me ask a few questions. Firstly with a small pair facing a raise and several callers do you value you hand less preflop or do the extra callers now give me the implied odds that make it correct to call? If there were only the original raiser(say he is a decent player) would you fold this at this stage in the tournament? Next was my raise and other bets ok or was the turn bet too small? How much would you bet or push here? Third question after my opponent called preflop raise, flop bet and raise and then turn bet would you shut down on river or commit all of your chips here? Would you worry about a bigger set(I thought KK so I checked)? As always any comments appreciated. Thanks.
