Perfect-record wallet backs underdog

This market refers to the Counter-Strike Upper Bracket Semifinals 1 match between Heroic and Phantom in the Stake Ranked Episode 3 Playoffs, initially scheduled for July 16 at 1:30PM ET. This market will resolve to "Heroic" if Heroic win the match against Phantom. This market will resolve to "Phantom" if Phantom win the match against Heroic. If the match is canceled (not played at all), ends in a tie, or is delayed beyond 7 days from the scheduled date without a winner determined, this market will resolve to 50-50. If the match begins but is not completed, and one team wins due to the opponent's forfeiture, disqualification, or walkover, this market will resolve to the team who wins. If the match ends in a forfeit, disqualification, or walkover (team withdraws before the start and the other wins automatically), this market will resolve to 50-50. The resolution source for this market will be official information from https://hltv.org. However, if https://hltv.org has not published final results within 2 hours after the event’s conclusion, a consensus of credible reporting may be used instead including video evidence. In cases where a team’s listed name includes minor discrepancies from the resolution source, this market will resolve based on the underlying real-world match rather than exact name matching. Recognizable abbreviations, alternate or erroneous spellings, sponsor tags, affiliate or academy designations, regional identifiers, and minor formatting differences will be treated as referring to the same team, provided the intended team can be clearly and uniquely identified within the relevant competition. If a listed team name has no reasonable connection to any participating team, or if it matches or could reasonably refer to another team in the same competition such that the intended team cannot be unambiguously determined, this market will resolve 50-50.
Worth surfacing because the Phantom side includes a highly profitable 45-for-45 wallet and coordinated buying during a major pre-event volume spike, though there is also larger opposing Heroic flow.
