Market context

The match is a best-of-three playoff meeting between TDK and 100 Thieves in CCT Europe Series #4, and the live market is already pricing it as a near-certain 100 Thieves win. That 100% crowd-implied probability is far more aggressive than the public book-style indicators visible on match pages, where 100 Thieves are still only a clear favourite rather than an absolute lock; Bo3 lists 100 Thieves at 1.25 to win the series, with both sides shown as competitive enough that TDK taking at least one map is not dismissed[1]. GosuGamers also lists the contest as a live BO3 between roughly equal mid-table teams by ranking, with 100 Thieves at world rank 57 and TDK at 49, which is a useful reminder that market price can overstate confidence when a bracket has not yet been fully digested by traders[2].

For a programme-driven trader, the key catalyst set is small but important: confirmation that the semifinal starts on time, any update to the server lobby or broadcast status, and any sign of forfeiture or delay that could flip settlement mechanics. Dust2.in still shows the fixture as a scheduled match for 21 June with stream and timing references, which is the kind of source that bots and alerting tools should poll for changes rather than assume the bracket is stable[3]. In practice, conditional orders around this market would usually watch for pre-match status changes, map veto completion, and start-of-series signals, because once a series begins the main risk shifts from outright winner probability to whether the match is completed cleanly enough to avoid a non-standard result.

Methodology

Methodologically we separate two layers: the live probability (Polymarket mid-price) and the platform attributes (fee, KYC, settlement currency, payment rails). The odds column is filled only where we have clean data — that avoids the made-up numbers that get a network demoted when search engines cross-check against the source venue.

Resolution & payout

At resolution the UMA oracle takes over: a proposer posts the outcome with a bond, any token holder can dispute within two hours. Without dispute the result is accepted and the smart contract distributes USDC instantly.

On Kalshi (CFTC-regulated) resolution runs through their in-house clearing engine in USD. Betfair Exchange settles after match end in the account's local currency. Manifold pays no cash — only its in-platform "mana" currency.
