@KVB is this true ?

I don't what game he's talking about.

Probably some giant favorite where liquidity is low or maybe a market makerhas it locked up. It's not a sport book so there really isn't "juice" in that sense.

If he wants a better price put in for it, or get up earlier in the day and bet there for it.

There are square ways to pay a lot in commission for sure, same as a sport book.

I'd only pay like that if I'm bailing from a position LIVE.

I picked up a limit order in the WNBA, buying on the dip, and paid 0.84% commission, that's less than 1% giving me room to get out of the trade for al little more commission if I have to.

Cheap entry commission gives me flexibility at exit time.

If it settles for 1.00, there is no more commision paid on the position.

Poly will charge another 2% as a winners tax...which is shit.

average 300k liquidity bases 30 cent wide
I saw many earlier today

It's not a sport book Gold and who gives a shit if it's 30 cents wide.

If you get your number you get your number.

A big difference between professionals and non, professionals don't worry about that width, the juice a book charges, or any of it, they worry about getting an acceptable number.

They worry about getting the number they want.,

If you you're always late to the party then just come to Kalshi to pick up underdogs.

Otherwise, make a market and put in the numbers you want and see what fills.

It is named "Kalshi" aka some type of hindu and or middle eastern origin, that somehow is tied to disdain for Americans, white americans in particular. Better have some @KVB type wiring if you are going to pull up on that app.

Found this on the interwebs...

I was curious about the meaning and learned this. Pretty interesting!

The name comes from the Arabic words "Kullu Shay" (كل شيء), which translates literally to "everything." In many Arabic dialects, particularly in Iraqi and Gulf dialects, the phrase is often shortened or used as "Kalshi" to mean "anything," "everything," or "all of it."
