Market context

Ilya Ivashka faces Petr Bar Biryukov in the Bengaluru 3 tournament, originally scheduled for 23 May 2026. The match carries a 65% implied probability for Ivashka's advancement, reflecting his higher ranking and established tour experience. Settlement occurs 30 May, allowing a seven-day window for completion before the market resolves to a tie-break outcome.

Ivashka, a Belarusian ranked in the ATP's upper-middle tier, has demonstrated consistency on hard courts and in Indian tournaments historically. Bar Biryukov, a Russian player, competes at a lower ranking and has limited track record against players of Ivashka's calibre. The 65% probability aligns with typical market pricing for matches between players separated by 100+ ranking positions, though the specific head-to-head record and recent form adjustments would refine this baseline expectation.

Traders should monitor tournament scheduling announcements and any weather delays affecting the Bengaluru event, as the May window can present humidity and rain complications. Withdrawal notifications from either player would trigger immediate repricing. Recent ATP injury reports and player statements from the preceding week will signal fitness concerns. The settlement window's seven-day buffer provides reasonable protection against minor scheduling slippage, though extended delays beyond that threshold would force a 50-50 resolution regardless of match progress.

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.

FAQ

Is this market available outside the US?

PolyGram is available in most jurisdictions where Polymarket isn't directly accessible. Polymarket itself is geo-blocked in the US/UK/EU. Always check local regulations.

Through the UMA Optimistic Oracle on Polygon: a proposer submits the outcome, a two-hour challenge window opens, and USDC payouts settle automatically once the result is final.

What's the difference between YES and NO shares?

A YES share pays $1.00 if the event happens, $0 otherwise. A NO share pays $1.00 if the event doesn't happen. The market price between 0¢ and 100¢ is the implied probability.
