 Kanu7 is a solid player who doesn't 4bet at all, has flatted a 3bet with AA and KK, and doesn't tend to fold to flop cbet much. He also has basically shoved everytime I've checked the river on a double barrel oop, which has been 2 or 3 times. I haven't showed him one hero call yet. I've pulled the trigger sparingly in this spot so far.

He has shown the propensity to hero call in good spots.

 Of all spots I'd hero call, I think this run-out is one that I'm least likely to try it. I suppose it depends what level we're on.

In general I'd imagine a lot of regs expect us to either bet this card for value, or to bluff it. When we check it, I feel like they interpret this as having a showdown hand that wants to see SD, or is trying to bluff catch.

I feel like most ppl expect to get called here.

I fold btw, there's a decent chance he doesnt bluff his gutters here because of the dynamic.

yeah..your description of dynamic makes it seem like he's never bluffing this river on this board.
Family Cruise IMO

this seems like a really great run out for him to hero call so i think unloading is probably not a great idea.

 I'd go all the way or check the turn. I think he isn't folding enough on the turn for a gutter+over barrel to show profit on this card. No reason to hero river when you're blocking his best draw. I don't think he expects you to call though.
