Tom, the collapse in premium after earnings is as bad as an option expiration. The stock has to move the better part of a strike price in your direction just for your option to hold its value the next day. If you're on the wrong side, you're done. This is one reason I like to play spreads rather than just going long the option of choice, because I'm not as hamstrung by premium decay
