Draw No Bet
A bet on the home or away team where your stake is refunded if the match is drawn. It removes the draw risk for slightly shorter odds.
Draw No Bet (DNB) is a bet on the home or away team to win, with your stake refunded if the match ends in a draw.
How it works
By removing the draw outcome it lowers your risk compared with the 1X2 market, in exchange for shorter odds. It's the equivalent of a 0.0 Asian handicap and suits backing a favourite you fear might be held.
Worked example
£10 on the home team DNB at 1.60: they win → £16; a draw → your £10 back; away win → loss.
Pros
- Stake back on a draw
- Lower risk than a straight win bet
Cons
- Shorter odds than 1X2
- No upside if the match is drawn
Tips
- Great for backing a favourite in a tight game.
- Compare DNB with the 0.0 Asian handicap price.
FAQ
