I like betting 75-80, and seeing what happens. It's really hard to justify giving a free card here as pre flop aggressor, blocking top set and with so many ways to improve. Not planning on folding to a jam except maybe if it stays multiway

with out the flush draw or blocking the Ad probably fine to check.
betting is also fine - tough to say which one is better.
I think I rather check this back in position and bet it out of position but that's just me. Could of worked out for you ether way though, so I wouldn't worry too much about how you played it. Just unfortunate result.
This is a clear "it depends" situation. If we bet, we should hate getting check-raised, so we should consider how much the table likes to check-raise. I'd be more inclined to bet against opponents who usually bet with a set here because they are paranoid about giving free cards.
One consideration here is that we don't have a backdoor flush draw.
If everyone has 500 in front of them, it is likely the table just opened. I tend to play more passively at a new table and see how everyone else is playing. I probably would have limped this hand preflop early in a session.

What do you mean a free card, you don't have much of a made hand to protect!
I can see the blocker and hoping to get it in vs. unpaired draws, but sheesh we have 4 players to get through without being called by better made hands and that's highly unlikely.
