    I went with (b) but it's not quite true.. the books won't put up squarer prices, more that the only action will be sharp, so lines will quickly be beaten into place. Perhaps what used to be sharp, will now be square, time will tell.

    As a true agnostic, I have voted C. I simply don't know and prefer to say, "I don't know" over speculating.

    My guess would be that overall there will be less friendly lines available, and we will have to work harder for less money whether that be gambling, arbing, scalping, middlng or whatever.

    After 4 months I can only come up with one answer: The Caribbean has always been a non issue.
