PredictionHero - Resolution Divergence Alerts (RDA)

Divergence Detected

Issue: Kalshi uses run-margin thresholds (1.5 and 2.5 runs) as resolution criteria, while Polymarket uses simple win/tie/loss status with no margin requirement. A close 1-run victory resolves differently across platforms.Hero tip: Kalshi bets require conviction on a decisive margin (1.5+ runs). Polymarket bets resolve on any lead. If you expect a close game, Polymarket's win markets are more sensitive; Kalshi's YES is harder to hit. Cross-platform arbitrage risk exists if the game outcome is a 1-run margin.

Critical divergence points:

  • Kalshi: Resolution triggered by run-margin thresholds only. YES if either team wins by more than 1.5 runs OR more than 2.5 runs in the first 5 innings. Ties and 1-run margins resolve NO. Key Quote: 'If Los Angeles D wins by more than 1.5 runs in the first 5 innings of the Los Angeles D vs A's professional baseball game originally scheduled for Jun 29, 2026 at 9:40 PM EDT, then the market resolves to Yes.'
  • Polymarket: Resolution based on lead status after 5 innings, not margin. Three outcomes: Dodgers (any lead), Athletics (any lead), or Draw (tied). No minimum margin required. Key Quote: 'This market will resolve to "Los Angeles Dodgers" if the Los Angeles Dodgers is winning the game at the conclusion of the 5th inning.'
Our PredictionHero Resolution Divergence Alerts (RDA) are there to help users identify potential differences across platforms. They do not replace or supersede the official rules and description of any prediction market. Users are solely responsible for reviewing and understanding the applicable rules and resolution criteria before placing any trade or bet. If you notice a potential inconsistency, discrepancy, or error in an alert, please report it to our team so we can review and improve the accuracy of our data.

Polymarket

In the upcoming MLB game between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Athletics, scheduled for June 29 at 9:40 PM ET: This market will resolve to "Los Angeles Dodgers" if the Los Angeles Dodgers is winning the game at the conclusion of the 5th inning. This market will resolve to "Athletics" if the Athletics is winning the game at the conclusion of the 5th inning. If the game is tied at the conclusion of the 5th inning, this market will resolve to "Draw". If the game is postponed, this market will remain open until the 5th inning has been completed. If the game is canceled entirely, with no make-up game, this market will resolve 50-50. To know when a postponed game will be played, please check the home team's schedule on MLB.com for the listed team and look for the game described as a makeup game. The primary resolution source for this market is the official final statistics of the event as recognized by the governing body or event organizers. However, if the governing body or event organizers have not published final match statistics within 24 hours after the event's conclusion, a consensus of credible reporting may be used instead.

Kalshi

The Los Angeles Dodgers vs Oakland Athletics game scheduled for June 29, 2026 at 9:40 PM EDT will be evaluated based on the run differential at the end of the fifth inning. Resolution depends on which team leads and by how many runs at that point. Oakland winning by more than 2.5 runs or more than 1.5 runs, and Los Angeles winning by more than 1.5 runs or more than 2.5 runs each constitute separate Yes outcomes. If the game is postponed or delayed, the market remains open and resolves after the rescheduled game concludes, provided the rescheduled game occurs within two days of the original date.

Frequently asked questions

Prediction markets and sportsbooks price the same event differently because they operate under distinct incentive structures. Sportsbooks set odds to balance liability and extract a fixed margin; prediction markets reflect aggregated trader belief, with no house edge. This market's odds on Polymarket and Kalshi may diverge from traditional sportsbook lines because traders here can profit directly from mispricing, creating tighter, more efficient pricing over time. Comparing the two reveals whether public sportsbook consensus aligns with decentralized trader conviction on first-five-inning outcomes.

Polymarket and Kalshi can show different implied probabilities for the same outcome because of liquidity, fee structure, participant mix, and how each venue defines the contract. Each platform attracts different trader demographics, liquidity pools, and settlement rule interpretations. Polymarket's first-five-inning outcome may be phrased as a binary winner, while Kalshi's variant could include a run-margin threshold, creating distinct risk profiles. Funding, trading volume, and the timing of major news also influence each platform independently. Arbitrage traders exploit these gaps, but friction costs and platform-specific rules often prevent complete price convergence, making cross-platform comparison valuable for identifying market inefficiencies.

Lineup announcements, injury reports, and bullpen availability will shift odds as traders reassess each team's early-inning strength. Weather conditions, ballpark factors, and starting pitcher form also influence first-five-inning dynamics. Breaking news on player health or roster changes can trigger sharp repricing on both platforms. As game time approaches, real-time betting action and professional trader positioning typically accelerate volatility. Monitor sports news feeds and platform activity closely; early-inning markets can swing rapidly on fresh information about who takes the field.
