There should be a discussion as to how the game in the future will treat OOT action (when binding and what options OOT player has when action does arrive).
IMHO, for a home game, I don't think OOT should be binding. Stop the OOT action, rewind back to where the action is, alert all players that the OOT player will have all options available. Repeat offenders don't get a repeat invite.
I think this is fine if new players are not shown the house rules when they arrive. But better then having the discussion after the event first happens, is to have house rules made available before a newbie sits down to play.
You don't necessarily have to explain all the rules, but common ones like forward motion or betting line, do you have to show to win, single chip call, rabbit hunting, RIT, and action OOT should be raised.
