Thanks Mark. Of note: this was not a Pennant match and the score itself has no impact on anything else, I was just curious.

I agree with everything you said above. I think it comes down to the following options as to what happenned or what was inferred:

1) player B conceded the *hole*, match score is 2-up
2) player B conceded the stroke, player A does not concede B's putt, B picks up his ball and hole is lost, score is 2-up
3) player B conceded the stroke, losing the match, player A then concedes player B's putt, match score is 1-up

Probably comes down to asking player A: did you concede his putt on the 18th? I'm not sure they would have put a lot of thought into that once the match was won.

The gentlemanly move, and by far most common is to concede the putt and take the 1 up victory. In 15 years of pennant, I've never seen otherwise. If someone tried telling me to putt the 6 footer to see if they win 2up or 1up, I'd tell them to go **** themselves, pick up my marker and walk away.

The only time it could even be considered is in a situation like Blakey has referred to, where total holes won could have an impact on the outcome for the team.
