This event group covers a professional KHL (Kontinental Hockey League) ice hockey match between Dinamo Minsk and Spartak Moscow scheduled for February 18, 2026 at 11:10 AM EST. Markets across Polymarket and Kalshi are betting on the winner of this single game, with resolution based on final score including overtime and shootouts.
Kalshi's resolution logic is internally contradictory, mapping both possible game outcomes (Dinamo Minsk win and Spartak Moscow win) to the same resolution state (Yes). This makes the market logically unresolvable and creates settlement ambiguity.
Hero Tip:
Avoid trading the Kalshi market until the platform clarifies whether this is a binary Yes/No market or a misstatement. Polymarket's binary outcome structure is clear and resolvable. Request explicit clarification from Kalshi on which team winning should resolve to No, or whether this is a different market type entirely.
Critical Divergence Points:
Polymarket: Binary winner-take-all market with clear mutually exclusive outcomes. Dinamo Minsk win resolves to Dinamo Minsk; Spartak Moscow win resolves to Spartak Moscow. Postponements keep market open; full cancellations resolve 50-50. Shootout goals are counted as one goal added to winner's score.
Kalshi: Stated resolution criteria assigns Yes outcome to both possible game results: If Dinamo Minsk wins = Yes, AND If Spartak Moscow wins = Yes. No No condition is specified, creating a logical impossibility for a binary Yes/No market.
