The MMs are a cagey lot. But, I don't know if I would hold out much hope for poots 100 points out of the money. I only had that happen once in my life with POS3. -g-

Anyway, I'm not too upset I tried to play it cute - I doubt the nov 125 poots will even double once the vol gets sucked out tomorrow morning.

That reminds me of the time in the early 80s when I bought TXN 120 puts when the stock was 150 two weeks before expiration for 1/4 apiece. The day after expiration the stock dropped 60 points. This happens much more often than what happened to CIEN in the last year where it crashes right before expiration. Tim
