    Im pretty sure I have the best hand at this point, but is there any value in raising the river here?

    I'd flat call. He check-calls twice, suggesting that he may be slowplaying the trips; your hand is probably good but your kicker isn't invincible, and you don't have the boat either, so I'd just call it down.

    Nah, smooth call. He'd probably call with Q8 (for example) but if he calls a re raise here you have to think you're beat.
