Yeah, the sentence about "I knew what was going to happen" was confusing. What I meant was closer to the description above. This guy isn't a habitual angle shooter. Anytime a dealer isn't watching the action it makes me nervous. So in real time i instabet the river, the middle player instamucked (after having backraised the turn), the older guy plopped a handful of chips out on the felt but didn't release them, I look at the dealer and see she still isn't paying attention and as he is sliding them back that is when I realized there was an issue. So my poorly worded comment was more like "I know what is going to happen - that I think he technically called, changed his mind and the dealer didn't see it so now I am going be be forced to decided if I want to enforce this technicality or not".
Just to be clear, I am not looking for kudos for not making him call or some sort of support for "yeah, you should have made him". It was honestly a gray area that I hadn't encountered.
I like the string raise analogy. In the end - it did strike me as a technicality that I was well within my right enforcing, but was probably best not to for the long run of the game. That is why I chose to let it slide, despite the fact that I am almost certain the floor would have ruled that he owed me the last bet.
