See y'all at zero. I have purchased $5 puts for 2008 & 2009, since I don't know exactly when they'll go BK.A $5 2008 put costs $0.90, so when they hit zero the difference is a profit of $4.10, or over a 4 bagger. And downside is limited in case a miracle occurs and they become profitable or get bought out.

What in the world are you thinking? What a tremendously stupid response. You provided no reasoning behind your inane, immature blathering, and didn't offer any insightful comments on why you believed being short KKD or long the puts was the wrong strategy. I could invest the time to school you properly on why KKD is going bankrupt, why my risk/return proposition is attractive, or how to treat a poster on the boards respectfully, but I wouldn't want to waste any more of my time.BBQ

Well it looks like your puts are finally paying off. Good call. Still got a while before bankruptcy, but after a franchisee (Sweet Traditions) filed for bankruptcy and had to close half of its stores in the Chicago area, the parent company might not be far behind.
