This event group covers a men's college basketball game between the Dayton Flyers and George Mason Patriots scheduled for February 18, 2026 at 7:00 PM ET. Markets span moneyline (winner), point spreads at -1.5 and -2.5, totals, and first-half outcomes across Polymarket and Kalshi platforms.
Polymarket and Kalshi cover different temporal scopes of the same game. Polymarket resolves on final game outcome (moneyline, spreads, totals); Kalshi resolves on first-half completion only. These are distinct settlement events, not competing versions of the same market.
Hero Tip:
Recognize that Kalshi's first-half market is a standalone event that resolves before Polymarket markets. First-half outcomes provide no deterministic information about final game results. Manage these as separate trading positions with different timing and risk profiles.
Critical Divergence Points:
Polymarket: Four markets covering full-game outcomes: moneyline (Dayton vs George Mason winner), two point spreads (-1.5 and -2.5 for George Mason), and totals (O/U 137.5). All resolve based on final score including overtime. Postponement keeps markets open; cancellation with no makeup resolves 50-50.
Kalshi: Single binary market on first-half regulation outcome. Resolves to Yes if Dayton wins first half, George Mason wins first half, or first half ends in a tie. This is a confirmation market (not a competitive outcome market) and resolves only on first-half completion.
