Keep Your Million (KYM) is where you start with a virtual $1,000,000 pot and try to hold onto as much of it as possible by making picks on player prop questions. It's simple to play, but a few of the mechanics are worth understanding before you dive in.
How the Game Works
1. Start with $1,000,000 Every player begins the game with a virtual $1,000,000 pot.
2. Answer a player pick question. You'll be shown multiple picks, like "Will Tarik Skubal have HIGHER or LOWER than 7.5 strikeouts?" — and you choose one and pick a side.
3. Split your pot however you like. Here's the twist: you don't have to go all-in on one side. You can split your pot between HIGHER and LOWER any way you want — for example, $600,000 on HIGHER and $400,000 on LOWER.
4. Keep the winning side. Once the question settles, whatever amount you put on the winning side becomes your new pot going into the next question. Money on the losing side is gone.
5. Repeat up to 20 questions. You'll keep answering new player pick questions — up to 20 in total. If your pot ever hits $0, the game ends.
6. Keep what's left. Survive all 20 questions with money remaining, and you keep whatever's left in your pot.
Note: Payouts from Keep Your Million are paid out as bonus funds, not withdrawable cash.
Getting Started
Keep Your Million is available as one of the welcome offers when you sign up, alongside other offers. If you choose KYM, a minimum $10 deposit is required to unlock the game.
Once your deposit is made, the game activates, and you can start making picks.
If you choose a different welcome offer at sign-up, you won't have access to Keep Your Million.
You have up to 7 days after signing up to make your deposit and unlock the game if you chose KYM as your welcome offer.
Once you start the game, you'll have 60 days to complete all your picks. If you don't finish within that window, the game ends with no payout, so don't let it sit too long once you've started.

I can't find the game in the app.
Keep Your Million is only available on the latest version of the Underdog app. Make sure your app is fully updated, then check the home screen promo carousel.
I can see the game banner, but I can't tap into it.
If you haven't unlocked KYM yet, you'll need to make a minimum $10 deposit to access the game.
I don't understand how the game works.
You start with a virtual $1,000,000. For each question, you split that money between the two possible outcomes however you like. Whatever you have riding on the winning side carries forward to the next question. If your pot hits $0, the game is over. Survive all 20 questions and you keep whatever's left.
Can I change my pick after I've split my pot?
No. Once a pick is locked in, it can't be changed. Picks lock before the game starts, so double-check your split before confirming.
What happens if a player doesn't play, or the market is voided?
If a player doesn't play, or the market for that question is voided, your pot carries over unaffected and you move on to the next question.
I won — when do I get paid?
Payouts are made in bonus funds, not withdrawable cash, and are processed automatically once the game is complete.
I lost. Can I get another game?
No — each customer receives one Keep Your Million game per entry period. There's no way to restart. Once your pot hits $0, the game ends.
What happens if a question gets regraded?
If a question result is corrected after settlement, your pot is recalculated based on the corrected result. If you'd busted out because of an incorrect settlement, your pot would be reinstated with the corrected outcome factored in.
I deposited, but the game hasn't unlocked yet.
There can occasionally be a short delay after depositing. Give it about 30 minutes — if it's still locked after that, reach out to support with your account details.
My results screen disappeared before I could see it.
You can still view your results after they've posted, even if you missed the initial banner. Check the promo carousel for a "Check your results" card. If that's also missing, contact support.
I haven't received a push notification about my pick settling.
Push notifications for individual pick settlements aren't sent for every result. Check back in the app to see how your pick settled rather than waiting on a notification.
What happens if a player leaves early?
Unlike with Pick'em, KYM does not offer Rescues. The player would be graded as normal. For example: If a player left early, and the pot was split between $600,000 for the higher and $400,000 for the lower - if the player's higher does not win, then the $400,000 becomes the new amount for the pot.
