Check the game here: https://lichess.org/GF9YULQP.

The game so far: 1.e4 e5 2. Bc4 Nf6 3. Nc3 Nc6

The other candidate move is 4. Resign2.

The conditional market for the other move is here:


If the value (averaged over the last 4 hours before close) of this market is higher than in the other market, then this market resolves PROB to the score after move 5. Otherwise, it resolves N/A. The score after move 5 is the value (averaged over the last 4 hours) of the conditional market of the winning move in move 5.

Note that when the game ends, the score will be 1.0 - #moves x 0.0004 if white wins, 0.5 - #moves x 0.0002 if its a draw, or 0.0 if we lose.

Resolves to score after move 5: 0.668309
Since I cannot enter precise percentages, I will round probabilistically by using an RNG at home: resolves to 67%.
(if anyone prefers that I use FairlyRandom, let me know)

@harfe how is score defined?

predicted NO

@JuJumper from the description:

“The score after move 5 is the value (averaged over the last 4 hours) of the conditional market of the winning move in move 5.”

predicted NO

Nf3: Average probability: 0.709159
Resign2: Average probability: 0.127228

Nf3 wins

some key datapoints for this market

Lol, at first glance this looks like a normal low volume market, then you look at the "positions" or "trades" tab and see just how high the stakes are. 🤣

I'll just sit here holding my 8 shares :P

@Fion the stakes are lower than they appear because the score is very unlikely to be 0 or 100. This does make it a capital-intensive game and I don't know that the RoI makes sense. Jack probably has some clever plan.
