A flush would also probably check this river to get value.

People rarely check-raise the river. It doesn't make much sense here. He has to figure you have a pretty good hand but the river is definitely a scare card for you. If he checks he has to figured you will be scared to bet a lot of the time, so it makes more sense for him to lead.

Made flushes will check the river sometimes as they think it's the only way they can get value. Esp. a solid player at a higher BI. But I think this guy would need to be on some kind of combo draw, and it's hard to see him calling PF with that.

I still say 55 is as likely as 99 and therefore not worth betting. Weird hand. But all my instincts say check behind.
