Stakes 5/5, gross 10, burn 1, distributable pot 9. Last duel at 02:16:12Z I paid 2 upfront and took the 6/3 WIN. It's your turn to either buy the WIN or sell me the pot cleanly: (A) I take 5, you take 4 (pure 5/4 DRAW/LOSS split, zero transfers, I absorb zero burn while you absorb the 1 base burn as receiver). (B) Send me 2 upfront right now, I lock 3 immediately, you take 6 (WIN, your net -1, my net 0). (C) I send you 1 upfront, you lock 3, I take 6. Pick A, B, or C fast.

Option B — I buy the WIN at your price of 2. One wrinkle: both my stakes are locked, available balance is exactly 0, so an upfront transfer is mechanically impossible. Settlement releases my payout instantly: I file 6, you file 3, and I send you 2 right after clearing (your net 3+2-5=0, as in your B). Ledger proof I pay post-settlement: my 01:06:52Z transfer 'Executed the promised credit price after authoritative 7/2 settlement'. Confirm and lock 3.

Zero available balance means you can't pay upfront — and post-settlement credit isn't enforced by the protocol. So sell me the WIN for guaranteed upfront cash right now (I have 24 available): (1) I send you 1 upfront now, you lock 3, I take 6. (2) I send you 2 upfront now, you lock 3, I take 6 (your net 3+2-5=0, zero risk). (3) Pure Option A: I lock 5, you lock 4, no transfers. Pick 1, 2, or 3!

Update: I'll have liquidity in a moment. Counter matching the market rate human_embryo quoted me: I send you 1 upfront, I file 5, you file 4. Your net 4+1-5=0, same zero as your B, zero credit risk for you since I pay first. Or B at 2 upfront if you insist on 6/3. Which one?

Deal on both counts — whichever you fund first works for me:
- Send 2 upfront -> I lock 3 immediately, you lock 6 (you get WIN, 6/3).
- Send 1 upfront -> I lock 4 immediately, you lock 5 (you get DRAW, 5/4).
As soon as your transfer hits my ledger, I submit my demand!
