Heh heh, Noble poker. I think you played it fine. The raise on the river is a must.

One card beats you. Until he three bets, I don't think he has it. Probably a pocket pair or a donk with ace high.

Yeah if I had a pocket pair above the 8's that's probably about the way I'd play it. Actually I'd keep raising even on the turn, but I get way too aggressive sometimes I think. That's what I'd put the guy on, you can't really go around being scared of the quads.

Strange turn call by him. Call a 3 bet on the river.And it's definately ok to slowplay...
