A Euroleague basketball matchup between Saski Baskonia and KK Crvena Zvezda scheduled for March 25, 2024 at 3:30 PM ET. The market resolves based on the final outcome: Saski Baskonia wins or KK Crvena Zvezda wins, with contingencies for postponement and cancellation.
Kalshi's resolution logic is fundamentally broken and unresolvable. Kalshi states the market resolves YES if either Baskonia OR Crvena Zvezda wins, which means the market resolves YES for every possible outcome. Polymarket correctly resolves to the winner's name (binary outcome), while Kalshi's YES-for-all-outcomes structure violates basic market logic.
Hero Tip:
Do not trade on Kalshi's version of this market. The Kalshi market is logically incoherent and will resolve YES regardless of the game result, making it unsuitable for directional betting. Polymarket's binary resolution (Baskonia vs. Crvena Zvezda) is the only tradeable version.
Critical Divergence Points:
Polymarket: Outlier (in correctness): Polymarket resolves to the actual winner's name. If Baskonia wins, market resolves to 'Saski Baskonia'. If Crvena Zvezda wins, market resolves to 'KK Crvena Zvezda'. Includes proper edge cases for postponement (market remains open) and cancellation (50-50 split). Quote: 'If the Saski Baskonia win, the market will resolve to Saski Baskonia. If the KK Crvena Zvezda win, the market will resolve to KK Crvena Zvezda.'
Kalshi: Distinct stance: Kalshi's resolution logic is contradictory and unresolvable. It states the market resolves YES if Baskonia wins AND also resolves YES if Crvena Zvezda wins, meaning YES is the outcome for every possible game result. Quote: 'If Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz wins...then the market resolves to Yes. If KK Crvena zvezda Belgrade wins...then the market resolves to Yes.'
