The Investment Thread

Yeah, what I was thinking, why I was confused why you said "lose all of my investment." Although the pot odds are a good analogy, with options you can never really lose your entire premium unless you hold out till the end(which I have seen some people do, It's amazing how many people don't pay attention to theta)
Usually if I'm holding to the end it is because I bought options as insurance. Ones that were way out of the money with huge upside to hedge other positions. It doesn't take much for those to go to $0 but the risk is always small with the expectations of going to $0.
