Default $10/$20 Trips facing a big old check raise.

The game is $10/$20 on Bodog.

Villain's name is Arturia for those that play in the game. This is my first time playing in it (My friend deposited $8000 and lost it all but $2000 over the last month playing 20/40 and 30/60 and decided to stake me in a big NL game with the last of the money.)

Villain has ~$5400
I cover with a whopping $15k

About an hour earlier villain said "I'm afraid that Crappy Player (the SN I was playing on) is gonna take $4,500 from me right before I'm about to leave. He has since built his stack up a little more.

I have been running well and playing very fast and loose. Villain has not tangled with me yet, and wasn't in many other pots either.

It's ~8 handed and I make it $70 to go in MP with Ad4d. Villain calls in the BB

Flop is 47d9d.

Check. $120. Call.

Q.

Check. $300. Call.

4.

Check. $780. Shove fairly quickly for $4800 total. Hero???

Also note:

While I have been raising a lot of hands and continuation betting the flop, I have been giving up on the turn VERY frequently when called.

Whether he has noticed this or not, I don't know.

id check behind on the turn

given you didnt, i call the river, no one checks a set three times (well, ppl do, but if he did, he gets your money)

also, about pot sizing, you really should bet the pot on the flop, you have a big hand with deep stacks and your hand is 'technically' well disguised (and whether true or not, you view willain as a player who may pay YOU off loosely)
this is really a small detail, given you bet 120 into 150, it doesnt change much, just an extra thought though.

also, what was his timing on flop -> river? you say it was a quick check, were his other checks quick?

fold
i think his name is athoria and he has absoltly no stones at all
although him checking twice would suprise me- he could even have qq here but I wouldnt call him for 1200 more let alone his stack
