Kalshi market structure is logically incoherent: all three outcomes (Salt Lake win, San Diego win, Tie) resolve to YES simultaneously, making the market fundamentally unresolvable. Polymarket uses standard binary logic where exactly one outcome resolves YES.
Hero Tip:
Do not trade the Kalshi market. The resolution rules state that YES occurs if Salt Lake wins OR San Diego wins OR Tie occurs — meaning the market will always resolve YES regardless of the actual match result. This is a critical platform error. Polymarket markets are tradeable and follow standard soccer match logic.
Critical Divergence Points:
Polymarket: Three separate binary markets covering all possible outcomes: RSL win (YES/NO), Draw (YES/NO), San Diego win (YES/NO). Exactly one market resolves YES based on the actual match result. Resolution source is official MLS statistics or credible reporting consensus within 2 hours of match conclusion.
Kalshi: Single market with three resolution conditions stated as: 'If Salt Lake wins... then YES. If San Diego wins... then YES. If Tie wins... then YES.' This creates a logical contradiction where all possible outcomes trigger YES, making the market always resolve YES regardless of match result.
