A KHL (Kontinental Hockey League) matchup between CSKA Moscow and Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk scheduled for February 25, 2026. Markets across platforms resolve based on which team wins the game, with provisions for postponement, cancellation, and overtime/shootout scenarios.
Kalshi's market contains a logical contradiction: both possible game outcomes (CSKA Moscow wins OR Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk wins) are stated to resolve to Yes, leaving no valid resolution path for a No outcome and making the market fundamentally unresolvable.
Hero Tip:
This is a critical data integrity failure on Kalshi. Do not trade this market on that platform. The Polymarket version is the only resolvable option, with clear winner-takes-all logic and explicit handling of postponements and cancellations.
Critical Divergence Points:
Polymarket:
Clean binary winner-takes-all structure. Resolves to the name of the winning team. Postponement keeps market open; cancellation without makeup resolves 50-50. Overtime and shootouts included in final score. Key quote: 'If CSKA Moscow win, the market will resolve to CSKA Moscow. If Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk win, the market will resolve to Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk.'
Kalshi:
Logically contradictory binary structure. Both possible outcomes (Neftekhimik wins OR CSKA wins) are mapped to Yes resolution, with no stated path to No. This creates an unresolvable market state. Key quote: 'If Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk wins...resolves to Yes. If CSKA Moscow wins...resolves to Yes.'
