Default Trips on a horrible board

I realize I played this hand horribly, but that's only because I went on tilt when I saw the flop. I've had this situation happen to me more times than I count recently -- hit trips, but on a single-color board. How do others play these situations? Just shove and force out anyone drawing? Or is that just risking shoving into someone who already has a flush? I've been at this table for about 10 minutes, no real read on my opponents yet.

Full Tilt Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.05/$0.10 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)

SB: $10.95
BB: $6.50
UTG: $7.45
Hero (MP): $6.70
CO: $6.90
BTN: $5.30

Preflop: Hero is dealt (6 Players)
UTG calls $0.10, <font color="red">Hero raises to $0.45</font>, CO folds, BTN calls $0.45, 2 folds, UTG calls $0.35

Flop: ($1.50) (3 Players)
UTG checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $1.10</font>, BTN calls $1.10, UTG calls $1.10

Turn: ($4.80) (3 Players)
UTG checks, Hero checks, BTN checks

River: ($4.80) (3 Players)
UTG checks, Hero?

check. If it was just UTG I'd bet out bluffing a diamond but you've still got BTN there so I would check/fold.

I don't see any value in betting here. With two players calling your flop bet, one of them is sure to have a diamond, if not both. Check, and hope to see the a showdown without investing anymore money in the pot.

If the Button bets a ridiculous low amount, and UTG folds, I probably would make a call.

So it's basically a lost cause?

After the river, yeah - there's no reason to bet. You're going to lose much more money than you will win in that position. Nothing you can do there.

bets OK, dunno if check/raise is better no idea how passive they are (if it ever gets checked around thats real bad).
