PredictionHero - Resolution Divergence Alerts (RDA)

Divergence Detected

Issue: Polymarket provides exhaustive edge-case handling (cancellation, forfeiture, incomplete matches, 7-day delay threshold) while Kalshi offers only a binary outcome framework without specifying how incomplete matches, cancellations, or delays are resolved.Hero tip: Polymarket markets are safer for traders concerned about incomplete or disputed matches—they explicitly resolve to 50-50 in forfeiture or incomplete scenarios. Kalshi traders should assume a match must be fully completed and officially declared a winner to resolve Yes; if uncertain, contact Kalshi support before the match begins to confirm their edge-case policy.

Critical divergence points:

  • Polymarket: Defines resolution across five distinct market types (Match Winner, Map Handicap, Map 1 Winner, Map 2 Winner, Games Total O/U 2.5) with unified edge-case logic. Cancellations, ties, 7-day delays without a winner, and incomplete matches with forfeiture all resolve to 50-50. Clinching-map forfeits count as completed matches. Source: vlr.gg within 2 hours, or credible consensus if delayed. Key Quote: 'If the match begins but is not completed, and one team wins due to the opponent's match forfeiture, disqualification, or walkover, this market will resolve to 50-50.'
  • Kalshi: Single binary market: resolves Yes if either SaD Esports or NRG Academy wins the match originally scheduled for Feb 23, 2026. No explicit guidance on cancellations, incomplete matches, forfeiture, or delay thresholds. Implicitly assumes a winner will be determined and declared. Key Quote: 'If SaD Esports wins the VCL North America 2026...match...then the market resolves to Yes. If NRG Academy wins...then the market resolves to Yes.'
