Game by game

Blended market read: Jordan 4.6%, draw 10.0%, Argentina 85.4% — Quiet Edge (2.41pp cross-platform spread).

Blended market read: Algeria 27.4%, draw 46.3%, Austria 26.3% — Unanimous (0.17pp cross-platform spread).

Market favorites have held in 49 of 65 settled games (75%). Biggest shock so far: Qatar vs Switzerland — draw won against a 79.3% favorite (surprise index 86). On the 16 upset(s), the de-vigged books put the most weight on the actual result 10 time(s) — the case for reading every source, not one.



Methodology footnote

Six archetypes from the Tater playbook: Unanimous (<1pp platform spread), Tight Consensus (1–2pp), Quiet Edge (2–4pp), Camp Split (PMs and books disagree as groups), Lone Voice / Lone Hawk (one platform/book against the field). Sportsbook probabilities are de-vigged (proportional 3-way normalization). Prediction-market prices are traded order-book prices, treated as vig-free.
