Friendly game - What's the Ruling
Here is the details:
Friendly home game so I don't care so much about the money as I do about just being right.
The game is limit Stud
The rules we agreed to - HU on the river is unlimited betting.
Player 1 and Player 2 are HU on the river.
Player 1 bets
Player 2 raises
Player 1 3 bets
Action on Player 2 and he says - "Do you want to go all-in?"
Player 1 says yes and immediately flips over his cards.
Player 2 then states that he in fact does NOT want to go all in
Did Player 2 make an offer that is binding - or did he ask a question to angle and therefore is not bound by it?

Now here is the kicker:
He actually DID want to go all-in. Right up until he saw my hand.
with limit, there isn't an 'all-in' move anyway. logically, yes but i don't think the 'rules' permit it. you take turns putting in your chips until they are all-in. i would hope that after the 8th or so raise the other guy might figure out he was second best...
