Another possibility is that he was playing max non-Royal strategy (found by setting the Royal to zero), in which case his play would be correct and not an error at all. Since the player was supposedly a "smart person", whatever that means, that's probably what he was doing. This would be mathematically correct if the total true value of the royal, including all contingencies, was actually zero, or in a range near zero, or if the player was playing min-cost-Royal strategy with enough perks to cancel the Royal. "Smart people" often like to be mathematically correct, so again, that could be what he was doing.
