### Comment:
So who buys the contract/options from him though? Why would anyone buy the contract outright? Wouldn't they just purchase the 100 shares on their own? Sorry, I'm autistic.  
  
 I just don't get the $768 that OP paid going into the pot, but he gains $3250 on the back-end of it.

### REPLY:
someone out there thinks it's going to go up by the end of day tomorrow and they like to play in the money options for lower risk

### END.
