An out of turn action is binding when the action DOESN'T change from that point till it gets to the person who acted out of turn. For example, if we have players ABC&D in a hand. Flop comes down and A is UTG. C says "I bet $50", if it is checked around to C, he MUST bet $50...but if A or B bets or folds (I think folding qualifies as changing action) he is not bound to make the raise, and may choose to bet, raise, call, or fold.

One of the players is open folding? Unusual. In any case that would not be a changing action, only a bet or raise makes the OOT player not bound. However, FYI, we just had a big rules thread in which this was discussed at length, and many players do not like the rule that OOT action is binding. Based on that discussion, I suspect you'll find many games where an OOT action is not binding, regardless of the intervening action.

None of which is applicable to the OP's question, of course. No violation for him, is the ruling.
