Only played one orbit with villian, also a blind battle, I hit TPGK he hit MPTK, he checks, I fired flop, he called. Turn gave hin trips, he checks I fire again, river he small bets I call.

Bet/fold the turn rather than check/fold.

Bet more on the flop, a bit of an overbet gives good protection. As played the turn is indeed a fold, turn check is suspect.

Agree. And I pot the flop. Him calling $1.50 means very little, so you need to calldown after checking the turn.
