Default 1/2 nl flopped trips: pot control, go broke, or standard?

3rd hand at the table, so no reads. Is this a situation where Villian usually has a better kicker or a set...or should I put more of an effort into getting it all in? This could also be completely uninteresting, I'm relatively new to 6 max nl (but I like it!)

Full Tilt Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $2 BB (5 handed) Hand History converter Courtesy of PokerZion.com

Hero ($206.70)
MP ($200)
Button <font color="#A500AF">(Villian)</font> ($380.50)
SB ($98.85)
BB ($104)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $7</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button <font color="#A500AF">(Villian)</font> calls $7, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>.

Flop: ($17) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $10</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Villian raises to $35</font>, Hero calls $25.

Turn: ($87) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, Villian checks.

River: ($87) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $64</font>, Villian calls $64.

Final Pot: $215

Yes, a check could totally induce a bet from villain.. but I can't imagine him calling the C/R with anything you beat unless there's an expectation that you will be playing cleverly against him.

I think a bet on the river looks a lot better.
