What do you think of this hand?

It was my first hand I played in my first $3 sit n go (have read a lot of great sit n go posts here, but only played a few of the $1 ones). I read lots of people don't limp in with a small PP in EP at the first level. I thought I had good odds of my set vs two pair or TPTK or just an over pair though.

Post flop I was thinking I was up against AA or AK and maybe KK or 99 (maybe even a random PP). So, was this a bad call even at this buy in level ?

I'd lose all my chips here too. If I flop a set, I want to play a big pot. BTW, sorry if this is off topic, but does anyone think hero should bet less on the flop? If pre-flop raiser didn't have AA/KK/AK/99, you get no action. It's a rainbow board, so you only need to give bad pot odds for a gut-shot or a pocket pair drawing for a set right?

TLR is an unknown quantity at this point
 A few comments:
1. I would fold to the PFR, I dont think early on in Sng it is worth risking 100 chips for a low PP.
2. After you got reraised I would put him on one of the following hands: AA, KK, AK, maybe 99.
You are ahead on most cases, I would lose my money here too

barring preflop decision, i would lose everything I had on this too. The board is so disconnected that you'd think he has AA or AK. Set over set is rare enough for the decision to go all in to be justified

Yep, gotta lose all your chips here, sorry. I'd call that PFR early-on (but not much more than that) in hopes to flop my set and destack someone.
I'll be a rootin' tootin' shootin' damn fool, protectin' my chips.

I beat a guy who had 333 with my KKK this afternoon.

Feels much better to have the overset instead of being over setted.
Light years ahead of the competition.

If you didn't loose most or all of your chips something was wrong.
