Is this delayed on purpose to hurt us holders of may options?

Options are a zero-sum game. If you are hurt, then the person who wrote the option is helped because your ((call)) option will go down or expire worthless. However, if history repeats, with the run-up that usually occurs in the weeks prior to the IPO, you should be in good shape.

Also to the person who commented on the MMs--this is the NYSE, so there is only ONE market maker.
