Best of both worlds: bet small.

you don't have to be a maniac to make some seemingly un-reasonable calls. i could see villain showing up w/ a FD here a good percentage of time, maybe w/ some pair, maybe KsT or As5/3.

Maybe villain was floating the flop and turned trips, so he decided to let u keep betting instead of bluff-raising you.

i think the check is pretty good, because he's gotta show up a lot of times with a hand that might look good to him (such as 5x, maybe KT/QT, flush obv). Also, he might try to bluff you out this pot fairly often since your line looks a lot like a missed draw.
