    Kalshi $1000 ..... payout $ 1910

    Draftkings $1000.... payout $ 1562

    That's a huge difference 

    Anybody notice that big of a difference regularly? Or this is just an outlier?

    I will do more 2 team parlays while at work today and do comparisons and report back

     Thanks for posting! I roll with Draftings because of the ease of which my withdrawals are sent. I am not sure about kalshi but with DraftKings, I can withdraw a few thousand dollars and it will be in my account within 30 seconds.

    I'm interested in kalshi....I just don't like change/new things.....but if they are paying 20% better then I may have to investigate more.....

    Same here.... that's why I stuck with betonline so long..... was use to there system.... but when they went to the new system permanently and couldn't use the old layout....i almost switched

    I only have tried draft kings and kalshi just recently....bc they give me fh ml options..... both of them r pretty similar.... they have the same bet patterns.... you trade instead of betting which i think I prefer bc you can cash out at anytime.....

    I haven't had a chance to go through more bets.....i am at work but I will have some examples soon.....i will prolly do about 10 parlays and compare to see what's the average in payout size..... but just that first bet alone is pretty massive difference

    I have cashed out with kakshi using bitcoin and it was in my account within the 30 min frame....i haven't tried with a card yet..... but I would image its the same as draft kings

    just did the same parlay and it's up to 1694 on draftkings but that's still 216 dollar difference... which is still pretty significant 

    Roughly 20 bucks every 100 bet

    I just did 2 more parlays....2 team fh ml ...i used byu in both

    Byu

    Texas

    Kalshi ...$1000 .....payout $2121

    Draftkings $1000.... payout $1724

    Byu

    Oregon 

    Kalshi 1000 to 2034

    Draftkings 1000 to 1612

     

    Those r just massive differences 

    Can someone else go check my work in case I am just missing something here......bc that's just significant difference 

    I think 3 parlays r enough evidence.... but if anybody else wants to go do a few and report back.... please do

    Liberty 

    Cowboys

    Kalshi 1000 to 2458

    Draftkings 1000 to 1851

    Maybe kalshi takes a fee after the bet is graded?  I haven't noticed that

    But another massive difference
