Default 3/6 Stars ATo battle of the blinds

I only have around 10 hands with Villain. Seems like he could be a little loose but I really have no clue at this point. Comments on any street appreciated.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $6 BB (7 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

MP2 ($792)
CO ($1127.95)
Button ($573)
Hero ($590.25)
BB ($419.55)
UTG ($636)
MP1 ($453)

Preflop: Hero is SB with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $18</font>, BB calls $12.

Flop: ($36) J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $22</font>, BB calls $22.

Turn: ($80) A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets $54</font>, Hero calls $54.

River: ($188) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $75</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to $150</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: $413

Lose least when behind, win most when ahead.
If you check, he might bluff or bet with a K thinking its best.
And if he does have u beat, hes gonna raise ya, so if u check call u lose less.

I don't think I would have kept my losses shorter by check-calling this hand at the river. I would have simply got to see a likely-more-expensive showdown where I was almost certainly behind.

I like the blocking bet here because I think he's more likely to call it than he is to bluff the river if he doesn't have a hand, but I could be wrong.
