Pushed teaser leg graded as a win or a loss · case 01

A leg landing exactly on the teased number wins, or kills the ticket.

ROOT CAUSE

The winning test uses v >= 0, so a push counts as a win.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Drop pushed legs from the count.

Unsuccessful approach: Grading a push as a loss is stricter than the stated rule.

Case contract

Point-spread teaser. legs rows are [team spread line, team margin of victory]; every line is moved in the bettor's favour by points (adjusted = line + points). A leg wins if margin + adjusted > 0, pushes if = 0, loses if < 0. Any losing leg loses the ticket. Pushed legs are dropped; fewer than 2 remaining winners refunds the stake. Payout by winning legs from the American table {2: -120, 3: +160, 4: +260, 5: +400} (5 or more pay +400). Return [status, return cents rounded down].

Why this case matters

Sportsbooks grade teasers with shifted lines, push reduction and a tiered payout table.

Verification & scope

Stipulated, bounded toy contract stated in the contract field; not a claim of conformance with any operator, exchange or regulator rule set. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
