not a fair assumption, it's not b/c he'd be smart enough to check back hands, it's that he sucks at poker and his river betting range is polarized to nuts/nothing and the frequencies we can weight to those two categories are grossly skewed towards the nizzles.
Ragnar said it himself, everything got there on the river, yet we want to c/c? He won't bet thinly enough or bluff (or have bluffs) enough in his range to make that line profitable. However, there are a decent amount of hands that will call a river bet that otherwise would have gladly taken a free showdown.
