Kalshi market structure is logically contradictory: all three outcome markets (Incheon win, Jeju win, Tie) resolve to YES independently, violating the mutual exclusivity requirement of a three-way match outcome. Polymarket correctly structures three mutually exclusive markets where exactly one resolves YES.
Hero Tip:
Do not trade the Kalshi markets as presented. The resolution logic is broken—all three outcomes cannot simultaneously resolve YES. Polymarket's three-market structure is the only logically sound approach for this event. Clarify with Kalshi before placing any bets.
Critical Divergence Points:
Polymarket:
Three mutually exclusive markets: (1) Incheon win resolves YES only if Incheon wins, NO otherwise; (2) Draw resolves YES only if match ends in a draw, NO otherwise; (3) Jeju win resolves YES only if Jeju wins, NO otherwise. Exactly one market will resolve YES. Resolution source: official K League statistics or credible consensus within 2 hours of match conclusion. Scope: 90 minutes plus stoppage time only.
Kalshi:
Three independent markets, each with identical resolution logic: (1) 'If Incheon Utd wins...then resolves to Yes'; (2) 'If Jeju SK wins...then resolves to Yes'; (3) 'If Tie wins...then resolves to Yes'. This structure logically permits all three markets to resolve YES simultaneously, which is impossible for a single match outcome. No resolution source or timing guidance provided.
