If you're c-betting the river this much, then you're trying to force others out of the hand when you don't hit your AK or flush draw.
    I'm not sure you know what all of these stats mean.

    If you are the aggressor pre-flop and it checks to you on the flop, then cbet flop is the percentage of the time you make a bet instead of checking.

    If you make a cbet on the flop, you are the aggressor on the flop and it checks to you on the turn, cbet turn is the percentage of the time you make a bet instead of checking. (ie: firing the second barrel)

    If you make a cbet on the turn, you are the aggressor on the turn and it checks to you on the river, cbet river is the percentage of the time you make a bet instead of checking. (ie: firing the third barrel)

    Cbet Flop: 53.98
    Cbet Turn: 72.50
    CBet River: 67.86
    To put this in perspective, he's only firing two barrels with about 0.5398 * 0.7250 = 39 percent of his range and firing three barrels with about 0.5398 * 0.7250 * 0.6786 = 27 percent of his range when he's the aggressor pre-flop. He's the aggressor pre-flop less than 17 percent of the time. This means he's double-barreling less than 6.6 percent of all hands and triple-barreling less than 4.6 percent of all hands.
