I call to set-mine here.

Hero bets $0.14, CO calls $0.14
Yippee I make my set - ah - it is on a board. I donk (over 3/4 as some protection from incomplete draws) with the idea I would fold to a raise. He calls my raise. Should I check/call here (Depending on odds) though as I have 7 outs to either full house or quads. Does the call point to the fact he doesn't have the flush? Maybe a K or a single spade or T9 for an incomplete draw?
Turn: ($0.44) K♣: (2 players)
Hero checks, CO checks
Think I missed a lot of value here - don't think it clicked at the time that I had a full house, so worried about the flop I hadn't even noticed the board paired - presumably I should have bet here? Possibly bet smaller to keep him interested, or does a check make sense, as if he makes his straight or flush I will get paid off (if I noticed what I was holding). I presume Kx is probably out now as I assume he might raise behind now?
River: ($0.44) J♣: (2 players)
Hero checks, CO checks
Looking back again - it still hadnt clicked I was way ahead. Should this have just been a raise for value - or would checking here be okay to induce a bluff from any busted draws or slow-played finished flushes?
