Welcome to our humble discussion.

You have an 88% probability of it working out plus the risk is heavily priced to the downside.

Good luck

For my education, how did you come up with 88%? Are there resources you will point to for a newbie like me?

When I checked the option chain your strike had a 12 Delta. 12% likelihood of expiring in the money hence 88% probability of expiring out of the money.

I use Thinkorswim platform, it's pretty much the leader.
