I really don't care about the price too much. I just made a substantial profit in just a couple of weeks of holding the stock.

I question the amount of premium. Could be a better deal for the acquirers.

Way too cheap. Based on the past year of drilling data from north Dakota their recoverable reserves are closer to 800 million (not the 500 million reported in the ft). Really a horrible deal for shareholders

Studied and played the Bakken for almost 3 years. Especially interested in Brigham, Northern Oil and Gas, and Kodiac. Interesting area to visit, especially the Berthold Reservation and surrounding area.
