Sounds like you were pretty sure this wasn't the case, but half the time I see this, it's an angle.
They are pretty strict about the betting line, and there was another limper between the raiser and myself who was yet to act, so I think it would have been just too confusing for the dealer to roll back the raise.
If the guy was angling, he as doing one hell of a consisten act. He sat in the wrong seat to start with. On the first hand, he had to be told 3 times it was his action, then be told what his options were. He struggled with every aspect of how to play live poker. Yeah, that can all be faked, but it really isn't worth it at a $65 tourney.
