Sports Betting markets use the event format and a defined scoring or settlement question. Sports markets can use different units and periods: goals for a football total, games for a tennis handicap or runs for a cricket innings. The event, period and settlement rule identify the proposition; a sport name on its own does not.
A market is a precisely defined question
A market title specifies what will be measured. Match winner asks for an outcome; a total asks whether a measured quantity finishes above or below a line; a player market concerns a named participant. The same fixture can contain many questions with different winning conditions.
Read the period attached to the selection. A whole-match result is different from the first half, a named set, an innings or a specified over. Likewise, a team total is not the combined total of both opponents. Units such as runs, goals, points and games are not interchangeable.
The selection receipt preserves the accepted market name, line and price. These details matter if the interface changes while the event is underway. Descriptions such as popular or featured do not alter settlement. Two selections can share a team name but still concern unrelated measurements, so identify the complete proposition rather than the name alone.
