$10 NL HE Full Ring: What value (if any) on a river bet?

No stats on villain. I was OOP & hit my set, what should we bet here on a river card that puts both str8 & flush possibilities out there? What value, if any?

Also, I had 2 others still in the pot after my flop bet. Are my bets ok on the flop & turn?

you definitely want to bet closer to a full pot on the flop instead of only half :( this is a very drawy board, and you want to charge them more.

here, i would check-call a normal bet perhaps (if villain shoves, i will strongly consider folding too).

As above bet bigger on the flop and turn. Then I would be inclined to put in a blocking bet on the river.

This way your opponent has to shove to bluff but may interpret your blocking bet as a value bet, thus being less inclined to bluff.

So then if he shoves, you feel happier that he had you beat. The blocking bet is about 1/3 pot so its small enough that it can still be called for value by some hands you beat.

as posted above...you need to bet 2 dollars on the flop with that flop, flush and straight draw....on the river and out of positions, you cant bet, you can only check/call or check/fold...at the 10$ level...its very possible CO or BTN are playing rags like A7 or K7 or any two connected spades

Flop and turn bets are horrible. I would pot them both. As played, I would check/fold on the river to value bet. Of course check/call to min bet.
