So unless he says "I fold" the cards are still live no matter what. He basically can call an all in by throwing his cards silently into the muck? I am still lost with this decision and do not understand the ruling obviousely.

I would have probably been thrown out I would have raised so much hell if this happened to me.

Just shows the importance of verbally stating your intentions before making a move in a live game. I guess you can tell I am an internet player that rarely, for now, plays live and have never played in a casino setting.
