Draw No Bet (DNB) Explained
Draw No Bet (DNB) removes the draw from a three-way market: if the match is drawn, your stake is refunded. This guide explains it with hypothetical examples only.
- You back one side to win.
- Double chance pays out on a draw, while DNB refunds the stake on a draw.
- Effectively yes — DNB is the same as a 0-goal Asian handicap, where a draw refunds the stake.
What DNB is
You back the home or away side. If they win, the bet pays; if the match is drawn, the stake is returned; if the other side wins, the bet loses. The draw is taken out of play.
Refund on a draw
The refund is what makes DNB safer than a straight result bet.
DNB vs double chance
Double chance pays on a draw (covering two outcomes); DNB refunds on a draw (covering one outcome with insurance). DNB usually pays better than double chance because it returns the stake rather than winning on the draw.
DNB vs handicap
A DNB bet is effectively a 0-goal Asian handicap. If you understand handicap betting, DNB is the same idea expressed as a refund on the draw.
