Prediction markets vs the books

Every venue sells the same thing — a dollar if that side wins — at a different price. Implied cost per venue below; amber = the cheapest way to buy that side right now.

Venue	Arizona Diamondbacks	St. Louis Cardinals
Books consensus fair, de-vigged	48.5%	51.5%
Best book price incl. vig	50.0%	52.8%
Kalshi contract price	49.5%	51.5%

Contract prices exclude exchange trading fees (Kalshi ~1–2¢ midrange), which narrow small gaps. A venue meaningfully below the books consensus is either a bargain or an early opinion — the graded record decides which.
