This event is for the CBB game between Sam Houston Bearkats and New Mexico Lobos on March 18 at 9:00 PM ET.
If the game is postponed, this market will remain open until the game has been completed.
If the game is canceled entirely, with no make-up game, this market will resolve 50-50.
Kalshi's market structure is fundamentally broken: both outcomes (New Mexico wins OR Sam Houston wins) resolve to YES, making the market logically unresolvable. Polymarket correctly structures the market with mutually exclusive outcomes (Sam Houston Bearkats, New Mexico Lobos, or 50-50 on cancellation), plus separate Over/Under and spread markets.
Hero Tip:
Do NOT trade Kalshi's moneyline market—it violates basic logic by resolving YES for every possible game outcome. Trade only Polymarket's markets, which have sound resolution logic. If you hold Kalshi positions, seek clarification or withdrawal before settlement.
Critical Divergence Points:
Kalshi: Outlier: Kalshi's moneyline market (questions 1-2) contains a critical logical flaw. Both rules state 'the market resolves to Yes'—one for New Mexico winning and one for Sam Houston winning. This means the market resolves YES regardless of which team wins, making it unresolvable and unhedgeable. Quote: 'If New Mexico wins... then the market resolves to Yes. If Sam Houston wins... then the market resolves to Yes.'
Polymarket: Aligned with sound market design: Polymarket structures the moneyline as a mutually exclusive categorical market (Sam Houston Bearkats vs. New Mexico Lobos), with a 50-50 cancellation clause. Polymarket also offers separate, well-defined Over/Under markets (at thresholds 162.5, 163.5, 164.5, 165.5, 172.5, 174.5, 175.5, 176.5, 177.5, 178.5, 179.5, 180.5, 181.5, 183.5, 184.5, 185.5, 187.5, 189.5) and spread markets (New Mexico -11.5 through -26.5). Quote: 'If the Sam Houston Bearkats win, the market will resolve to Sam Houston Bearkats. If the New Mexico Lobos win, the market will resolve to New Mexico Lobos.'
