class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Draw No Bet means exactly what it says on the label \u2014 if there is a draw, no bet, meaning that if a draw result occurs, the bet is canceled.<\/p>\n<p>But what does this mean for you as the bettor?<\/p>\n<p>As we mentioned in the introduction, draws are quite rare and therefore have quite high odds. That said, draw outcomes tend to throw off the odds when betting on a team to win. In fact, when you look at the Premier League, across 5 seasons from 2012 \u2014 2017, the chance of a draw was 25%. This significantly skews the odds when attempting to bet on a winning team. If you would like to simply bet on which team would win without considering the draw result, you can bet on a Draw No Bet wager.<\/p>\n<p>What this means is that you, as the bettor, pick either team as the predicted winner. The concept of a draw occurring is removed from the equation \u2014 you pick either team or player 1 or 2 to win. If a draw does occur, however, instead of throwing your odds or you losing your bet stakes, the stake is simply returned and your bet is canceled.<\/p>\n<p>This is why this type of gambling option is called \u2018Draw No Bet\u2019. Simply put, if there is a draw, then you don\u2019t have a bet as the bet is canceled.<\/p>\n<p>In general, the draw no bet market is a betting type used by more risk-averse bettors. The odds don\u2019t tend to be as high but the chance of losing is considerably reduced as now there are only 2 options of the outcome rather than the third option of a draw.<\/p>\n<p>Another reason you may consider a Draw No Bet wager is to back an underdog when you have a chance they might win. Take 2018\/2019 Premier League season. <em>Wolverhampton Wolves<\/em> rose up from nowhere and defeated many a top Premier League side in an unexpected twist of fate. In this circumstance, you may have considered backing Wolves against teams like <em>Man U<\/em>, despite <em>Wolves<\/em> still being the underdog. Betting on a Draw No Bet gives you the safety of a draw as you won\u2019t lose your money if the underdog draws instead of outrightly winning. However, if they win, you win big. So in this sense, a Draw No Bet wager is a great safety net for betting on underdogs.<\/p>\n<p>So, in short, a Draw No Bet wager removes the draw option. If your side wins, you win the bet. If your side loses, you lose the bet. If both teams draw, your stake is returned.<\/p>\n<div class=\"btn-box\"><a href=\"\/en\/football\/prematch\/1?utm_source=tz_blog&amp;utm_medium=football_prematch&amp;utm_campaign=draw-no-bet\" class=\"article__button button button_article\" style=\"\" target=\"_self\">Bet DNB with Parimatch<\/a><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Draw_No_Bet_Explained_with_Examples\"><\/span>Draw No Bet: Explained with Examples<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you are still a little unclear about how a Draw No Bet betting market works, let\u2019s use a soccer example to help you get to grips with it. Take a look at this match below between <em>Wolverhampton Wanderers<\/em> (1) at home against <em>Leicester City<\/em> away (2):<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 720px;\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">1<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>2.55<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">X<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>3.25<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">2<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>2.85<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>In the above market example, you can see the odds for a double-chance bet. This is a wager where you can either bet that <em>Wolves<\/em> (1) will win, the teams will draw (X), or that <em>Leicester City<\/em> will win (2). In this scenario, the odds are pretty even on both sides, with a slight lean toward <em>Wolves<\/em> win. The odds that <em>Wolves<\/em> will win are 2.55 and the odds that <em>Leicester City<\/em> will win are 2.85. However, the odds or a draw are 3.25. In this case, while a draw is less likely, as can be seen by the odds, there is still a chance that a better could lose their stake on the draw.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine you were to place a wager that <em>Wolves<\/em> would win. When we look at odds, we can use these figures to calculate the implied probability. This type of probability refers to your chances of winning the bet. You can do this by taking the odds \u2014 in this case, 2.55 \u2014 and dividing 1 by those odds, and multiplying it by 100. In this case:<\/p>\n<p>(1 \/ 2.55) x 100 = 39% chance of <em>Wolves<\/em> winning.<\/p>\n<p>While these chances don\u2019t seem that far apart, the odds against a <em>Wolves<\/em> bet stack up pretty high.<\/p>\n<p>This is because, with a double chance bet, you are betting on one of three scenarios \u2014 1 or X or 2. So when you compare your chances of winning the bet against your chances of not winning the bet, you have to add together the two chances that you won\u2019t win.<\/p>\n<p>In this case, while there is 39% that <em>Wolves<\/em> game ends with a win, there would be a 61% chance of losing the bet due to a draw or a <em>Leicester City<\/em> win.<\/p>\n<p>Now let\u2019s compare it to a Draw No Bet wager.<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 720px;\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">1<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>1.78<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">2<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>2.01<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>In this scenario, the chances of winning the bet on a Wolves match ends with a win is 56%. The chance of losing the bet calculates to 49% (with a betting margin of 5%). In this situation, the chances of winning the bet increase as the chances of losing decrease considerably with a draw result removed from the potential outcomes.<\/p>\n<p>Whereas before, with a 1X2 bet, calculating the odds against you mean factoring in both a loss and a draw, with a Draw No Bet wager, you only have to factor in a loss.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, if a draw occurs, your stake would be returned to you.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Place_a_Draw_No_Bet_Wager_on_Parimatch\"><\/span>How to Place a Draw No Bet Wager on Parimatch<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It is easy to get the hang of Draw No Bet wagers as they are a relatively simple concept.

With a DNB bet, you take out the chances of a draw happening, as your stake will be returned if a tie outcome occurs. This doesn\u2019t make it more likely that a bettor will win, just less likely that you will lose your stake.<\/p>\n<p>So when should you consider betting on a Draw No Bet wager?<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"When_a_Draw_is_Likely\"><\/span>When a Draw is Likely<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Draw No Bet wagers are a great idea if you are planning to bet on a team but a draw is likely. This would occur when both teams are of similar capabilities and skills. If you are unsure of whether two teams are likely to draw, consider the odds. If both teams in a game have similar odds, they are likely to draw.<\/p>\n<p>Bear in mind, if you see odds that are somewhat similar and the home team has a smaller edge, this is likely the home team advantage being represented. This would mean that there is likely to be a draw. The above market example of <em>Wolves<\/em> versus <em>Leicester City<\/em> is a prime example of this. As two similarly skilled teams, they have nearly equal odds. <em>Wolves<\/em> have slightly lower odds as they have the home team advantage. In this scenario, a draw is very likely.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"When_You_Want_to_Stake_the_Underdog\"><\/span>When You Want to Stake the Underdog<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>When betting on the underdog, you have a chance of winning big if your prediction is correct. The problem with betting on the underdog is that the chances are certainly not in your favor, making a bet riskier than wagering against the favorite. On top of this, the draw result skews the chances of losing even further from your favor.<\/p>\n<p>In order to combat the negative effects of the draw odds, you can remove the match ended in a draw option so that you have less chance of losing if the underdog draws instead of winning.<\/p>\n<p>Take this football match between <em>Southampton<\/em> and <em>Burnley<\/em> as an example:<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 720px;\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">1<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>1.72<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">X<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>3.75<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">2<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>4.90<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Here you can see that <em>Burnley<\/em> is the underdog. While this may be true in terms of skill, <em>Manchester United<\/em> lost 0-2 to <em>Burnley<\/em> in January 2020. This shows that <em>Burnley<\/em> could surprise the crowd and beat <em>Southampton<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine you choose to back Burnley with a stake of 10,000 TZS at an odds of 4.90. In this example, you only have a 20% implied chance. With the draw and a Southampton win against you, you are looking at an 85% implied chance against you (including a 5% bookmaker margin). This means an 85% chance of losing your money.<\/p>\n<p>However, if you win, you will receive a 49,000 TZS payout.<\/p>\n<p>To put the odds more closely in your favor, a Draw No Bet wager would remove the draw chances, which would decrease the implied probability of you losing the bet. Instead, it would look like this:<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 720px;\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">1<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>1.29<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">2<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>3.50<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>In this circumstance, without the potential draw outcome in play, the odds of losing are 77.5% instead of 85%.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"When_Youre_Live_Betting_on_a_Favorite_Thats_Losing\"><\/span>When You\u2019re Live Betting on a Favorite That\u2019s Losing<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If you are watching a match and you truly believe that the favorite is going to win, but they are currently losing, you want to remove the draw outcome. When the favorite starts to give away their lead, it\u2019s time to bet on a Draw No Bet. This could be that the favorite is losing or the underdog has scored, closing the gap. In this case, you want to reduce the likelihood of losing your stake if they draw.<br \/>\n<div class=\"btn-box\"><a href=\"\/en\/football\/live\/1?utm_source=tz_blog&amp;utm_medium=football_live&amp;utm_campaign=draw-no-bet\" class=\"article__button button button_article\" style=\"\" target=\"_self\">Soccer Live Betting<\/a><\/div><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pros_and_Cons_of_Draw_No_Bets_Wagers\"><\/span>Pros and Cons of Draw No Bets Wagers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are advantages and disadvantages of the Draw No Bet market option, and each of these points plays out differently depending on the situation in which you are applying the betting option. Consider these advantages and disadvantages of Draw No Bet wagers before choosing this strategy:<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pros_of_Draw_No_Bet_Wagers\"><\/span>Pros of Draw No Bet Wagers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Shelter your stake from the draw<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Punters will be surprised that the tie outcome is actually far more common than realized. In soccer, for example, a draw occurs around 25% of the time. This means one of the four games will end in a draw. If you factor the draw into your odds, you have a high chance of losing when selecting a winning team. By going for Draw No Bet, you can put your faith aside without having to worry about the fallout of a draw.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Protects you from unsuspecting counterattacks<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>One of the reasons that Wolves managed to creep up the Premier League was that bigger teams underestimated them. Instead of playing their prime squads against the Wolves, they played inexperienced and less skilled teams. This meant that the Wolves managed to harness points through surprising wins and much-needed draws. A Draw No Bet protects you from financial loss in similar scenarios.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cons_of_Draw_No_Bet_Wagers\"><\/span>Cons of Draw No Bet Wagers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>The odds are slightly lower<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As the draw option has been removed, there is less chance of lost bets. This means that Draw No Bet odds are lower than with 1X2 bets.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Draw_No_Bet_Alternatives\"><\/span>Draw No Bet Alternatives<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are other ways to bet, taking into account the draw outcome and protecting yourself against it. These options are also available on the Pairmatch sports betting app.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Double_chance_betting\"><\/span>Double chance betting<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>While you can\u2019t place a bet on two outcomes in a single match using a 1X2 bet, you can use a safer <a href=\"\/blog\/en\/what-is-double-chance-betting-explained\/\">double chance<\/a> wager, where you bet on outcomes such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Team A wins or draw;<\/li>\n<li>Team B wins or draw;<\/li>\n<li>There is no draw.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The difference with this compared to Draw No Bet wagers is that the odds tend to be lower as you have more chance of winning this kind of bet. You may also find more restrictive limits with double chance bets.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Handicap_00\"><\/span>Handicap 0.0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A handicap 0.0 bet is essentially exactly the same as a Draw No Bet wager. In a 0.0 handicap bet, there is no draw option, and without a handicap (as it is set at 0.0), neither team is given an advantage. In this scenario, if you bet on<em> Crystal Palace<\/em> and they win, you win the bet. If you bet on <em>Crystal Palace<\/em> and they draw, your stake is returned. If you bet on <em>Crystal Palace,<\/em> but <em>Newcastle<\/em> wins, you lose your stake.<br \/>\n<div class=\"btn-box\"><a href=\"https:\/\/parimatch.onelink.me\/lTl0\/TZ?utm_source=tz_blog&amp;utm_medium=app_download&amp;utm_campaign=draw-no-bet\" class=\"article__button button button_article\" style=\"\" target=\"_self\">Download to Bet on the Go<\/a><\/div><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Parimatch_Other_Bet_Types_Explained\"><\/span>Parimatch: Other Bet Types Explained<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In this list, you will find our other articles dedicated to bet types.

The Draw No Bet betting option enables punters to be able to place a bet without worrying about the impact of a possible draw. This is especially poignant when one considers that soccer experiences draw 25% of the time!<\/p>\n<p>By opting for a Draw No Bet wager, you can not only reduce your implied probability of losing, but you can also protect your stake at the same time. This allows you to take more risky strategies, such as backing the underdog to try and increase your potential winnings. It also enables you to shelter yourself from a favorite loss in action. If you see the margin closing between a favorite and the underdog while the game is in play, a Draw No Bet wager can help to shelter you from the looming draw that seems possible!<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, placing a Draw No Bet wager on the Parimatch <a href=\"\/page\/androidapp\">sports betting app<\/a> is incredibly easy.

Therefore, as a bettor, you can place your wagers either on a home or away win. This means that if your predictions are correct, you win. However, if the game ends in a draw, your wager is refunded since there is neither a win nor loss.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_draw_no_bet_example\"><\/span>What is draw no bet example?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>For example, Team A and team B have a home and away game, and you bet on team A. In 1&#215;2 betting, you have three outcomes \u2013 you will only cash in if team A wins and lose if team B wins or the game ends in a draw. But in a draw no bet, you only get two outcomes \u2013 if team A wins, you cash in. if team B wins you lose, but if the game ends in a tie \u2013 you get your wager back.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_are_draw_no_bet_odds_calculated\"><\/span>How are draw no bet odds calculated?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Draw no bet odds are calculated by combining the odds placed on a market.
