Q's on small PP's, Axs, and connectors...

Well, you're gonna have to talk to some of the real math wizzes around here to get exact numbers on Ax suited, suited connectors and the like, but personally, the way I usually play small PP is that if the raiser has me covered (i.e., i can solidly double up off him) I'll call ~5-10% of my stack with any pocket pair, because the implied odds are huge if you hit your set. One of the best hands I've ever seen involved something like this in .25-.50 NLHE, two big stacks at the table, one raised to $7 from LP, the guy in EP called, flop came 237, EP bet, LP raised, EP pushed, LP called, EP shows 33 for a set, LP shows AA. Because of the huge implied odds (both stacks were ~$200), the $7 made sense if he hit his 10% set draw on the flop.
