On the turn, I was hoping to collect more money on the river. However, I wonder if it was worth the risk of slowplaying with three high cards to a straight already on the board.

On the river, I thought a raise would scare away callers, possibly including the bettor. Though, I really have no idea what the best play here is.

Were these calls right?
