Allen,

You are correct of course. If the deal is a no-go, you can lose BIG. And since the play seems so good still, one would assume that the risk is high.

I actually know nothing of the deal. I was merely pointing out to David that to "plug my life savings into TGP" as he put it, may still be a bad idea, even if the deal goes thru. In these types of play, one must hedge by shorting the other side so that you are truly playing the arbitrage and are immune to market swings.
