What was the liquidity in the underlying and the 
various option series?  Did you ask where they entered your order?  
The $2.90 offer may have been on one exchange and your bid may have been on 
another where the offer was higher.  There are a lot of reasons, non of 
them really good.

  Subject: [RT] Option fills
  Is there some trick to getting option fills? I have 
  just started to trade options and am using Interactive Brokers. When I put my 
  limit order in to buy @ the ask was at 3.10. I did not get a fill and then the 
  ask went down to 2.90. Still no fill, and then when it went to 3.2, I got a 
  fill at 3.1.IB has no particular explanation other than that I got 
  what I wanted so why did I have a problem? I bought one contract. as an 
  experiment. Could that have been the problem?Thanks, for all 
  help,KateTo
