Re: conceding putt.
I'd say no.
If he didn't express that it was given, then I'd play it out.
Maybe he expects you to make it. -
Re: conceding putt.
I agree with LP.
I would like to add that it is quite rude of your opponent to walk off the green or not to remain just off the green, before the hole is finished.Comment

Re: conceding putt.
For those of us who are "Rule Book Oriented", Rule 2.4 covers Concession of next Stroke, Hole or Match...
The rule makes no specific reference whatsoever to how the concession is given. Only that once it is given, it can not be withdrawn.
I agree with LP & VP and if it is not expressly given, then I'd proceed as if it hasn't been...
That's not to say that you could presume that it is given and then advise that you took his actions as a concession and see what happens. I guess it would depend on how BIG the sheep station you are playing for is...Comment

Re: conceding putt.
If he is that rude I would take it as a concession. But before picking the ball up just call out 'That was halved then!' (or whatever).Comment
