What is draw no bet?

FootballFanager team · Updated 12 November 2026

Draw no bet (DNB) is a bet on one team to win, where a draw gives you your stake back. If your team wins, you are paid at the DNB odds. If they lose, the bet loses. It is the same as Asian handicap 0.

Example

You bet 10 on Brentford draw no bet at odds of 1.90.

DNB versus the 1X2 win

Because a draw is refunded, DNB odds are lower than the plain win. Without the bookmaker margin, the DNB price is linked to the 1X2 prices: fair DNB odds for the home team = 1 + P(away win) ÷ P(home win), where P are the fair probabilities. Use our implied probability calculator to get those from the 1X2 odds.
