Default Back again with another big pocket pair- advice?

Full Tilt Poker
$0.25/$0.50 - No Limit Hold'em

Seat 3: VILLAIN ($173.50)
BUTTON: HERO ($34.15)

*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to HERO [Kc Kd]
UTG folds
UTG+1 folds
VILLAIN raises to $1.75
UTG+3 folds
UTG+4 folds
CO folds
Stevo1245 calls $1.75
SB calls $1.50
BB folds

*** FLOP *** [Ts 2d 4s]
SB checks
VILLAIN bets $4
HERO raises to $10
SB folds
VILLAIN calls $6

*** TURN *** [Ts 2d 4s] [Tc]
VILLAIN checks
HERO checks

*** RIVER *** [Ts 2d 4s Tc] [9s]
VILLAIN checks
HERO bets $8
VILLAIN calls $8

*** SHOW DOWN ***
HERO shows [Kc Kd] two pair, Kings and Tens
VILLAIN shows [As Td] three of a kind, Tens
VILLAIN wins the pot ($39.70) with three of a kind, Tens

I'll willingly admit that I should've re raised preflop.
Raised on the flop for value
Checked the turn (?)
Raised on the river for value - I did not think villain would check trip tens on the river after the turn went check/check
Bad Luck? Bad Play? Both?
Advice or Thoughts?

Thanks guys

Well given your opponents hand you were lucky that he let you off lightly by checking turn and not raising river, I think you played OK but please please please reraise preflop. Blocker bet on river is ok too.

Rebuy preflop. Raise the flop properly to like 12+ Then I probs check turn bet river small. Its a fine line imo, just work on bet sizes.
