>how will we get through to the web brokers to exit poots...

I had a scare with a boatload of intel puts that went 5 points into the money on expiration friday recently.. I was in person at the schwab office but the place was packed and my order didnt get through until after the close.. LUCKILY it executed at like 9pm that evening, otherwise the schwab signature team folks were telling me i would be short around 2 million bucks worth of Intel come monday morning.

I got ripped for 1/2 point on the final execute, but that was still better than hoping to cover that kind of short at the open on the following monday... talk about praying for no rally!
