Draw No Bet Explained
Published 8 Jun 2026
Draw No Bet removes the draw from the equation and refunds your stake if it happens. Here is how it works.
With Draw No Bet (DNB) you back a team to win, but if the match ends in a draw your stake is returned β you neither win nor lose.
How it pays
- Your team wins β bet wins (at slightly shorter odds than the standard win market).
- Draw β stake refunded.
- Your team loses β bet loses.
DNB vs the alternatives
DNB sits between the full win market and double chance: safer than backing the win outright, but better odds than 1X/X2 because a draw returns your money rather than paying out. It's effectively a 0.0 Asian handicap β see our Asian handicap guide. Use it when you fancy a team but want insurance against the stalemate.
