I think I played this hand way to passively?

On the flop I have trips with a backdoor FD but OOP in a 4way pot I don't feel strong enough to to bet so I check/call.

On the turn my hand has improved quite a bit (perhaps I should have raised?) but I check. The MP does bet, giving me the opportunity to checkraise but I feel that only top set or a FH would call. On the river I make a small value bet but everyone folds.

Playing the hand passively is all you can do, this is why you should fold preflop.

A762 isn't a great hand at all and this is the reason why. You can't ever really bet your hand, especially out of position, when you hit. Therefore the pot is always going to stay small, however if you are beat the pot is going to get very big very quickly because you can't really fold.

I would not complete this hand from the small blind, prefer to fold and save a small blind because the reverse implied odds with the hand are quite high (like when you flop a nut flush draw on a QT9 board). You will get charged a lot to hit your flush and you wont get paid off when you do.
