I actually wasn't certain I played the hand well. Is checking the river too wimpy? And should I really cap 3rd?

I wouldn't cap 3rd in the games I play. But I don't know how aggressive these games are.

I think you played the river correctly. Its pretty easy to put him on trip Aces. When he raises you, take a hint.

I thought you played it well. Its your opponent who played it poorly on 6th street. He really should give you credit for a boat at that point.

Capping 3rd is certainly OK, you could easily be up against QQ, JJ, or maybe even TT, 99.

Your opponent played poorly after your re-raise on 5th. Both your hands are so well defined at that point that you could have turned up your 2 hole cards. He is a dog to fill on the river with a dead 8 showing yet he caps on 6th. You are definitely getting the better of it there.

Since he is a dog to fill on the river you have a clear value bet because he will play you off 100% of the time.

Alternatively, against this opponent I get the feeling he would have bet anyway if you had checked on 7th so you would have gotten you river bet in anyway without risking getting raised, although I would have definitely bet in your spot also.

Well played, monster over monster, nothing you can do.
