What the contract measures

The Polymarket event "Brazil Série A: 2026 Runner-Up" asks which club will finish as runner-up in the 2026 Brazil Série A season. Each listed club has its own binary contract. A "Yes" outcome means the listed club is determined as runner-up, and the rules say that if a participant becomes unable to finish as runner-up, its market resolves to "No" [1].

The wording has several details that affect how a reader should compare contracts. If multiple teams are declared second-place finishers, the market resolves in favor of "the team whose listed name comes first alphabetically" [1]. If the event is cancelled, postponed after December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, or no runner-up is declared in that window, the market resolves to "Other" [1]. The listed end time for every market is 2027-01-01T04:59:00.000Z [1]. That is a listed close time in the contract data, not an announced resolution date, and it does not show when the runner-up was or will be determined.

Reading the snapshot

The saved prices were observed at 2026-10-21T06:00:05.915Z and retrieved at 2026-10-21T08:41:58.885Z. They describe that moment only. They are not executable quotes or verified probabilities.

The eight saved "Yes" prices range from 0.24 for Athletico Paranaense to 0.485 for Palmeiras. Bahia is at 0.335. Palmeiras, Santos, Flamengo, Atlético Mineiro, Cruzeiro, and Fluminense sit between 0.445 and 0.485 [1]. Because these are separate binary contracts, the "Yes" prices do not need to sum to one. Here they sum to about 3.36, so they should not be read as a single probability distribution across the field.

The sample includes all eight saved markets for this event, and the coverage record marks it as not partial [1]. The sample warning still applies: the listing does not establish that the provider covers every possible real-world outcome [1]. Each row is also a separate contract, so the prices are not a ranking of unlike outcomes across platforms, and a lower price here does not establish that a club is less likely in any verified sense.

What remains uncertain

The evidence does not explain why any price is where it is, how many traders hold each position, or how liquid each contract is. Volume is not included in the interpretation here and does not indicate liquidity. The evidence also contains no current standings, match results, or announced dates beyond the contract's listed close time. A reader should check the rules and the resolution source named in the contract before drawing conclusions about the outcome.
