Free Showdown or Small Value Bet?

[GTSamIAm]

Should I take the free showdown or go for a small value bet hoping the opponent will call with a weak ace? Or will I only get called by hands that beat me? And do I set myself to be bluff raised or raised too often? Also, was my flop raise too much? I wanted more people in the hand with that monster of a hand.
