In the United States a sportsbook or a race and sports book (sometimes abbreviated as book) is a place where a gambler can wager on various sports competitions, including golf, football, basketball, baseball, ice hockey, soccer, horse racing, greyhound racing, boxing, and mixed martial arts. A sportsbook is the same thing as a “bookmaker” or “bookie.” It’s a company or individual who accepts bets from individual sports bettors.
There are currently 13 names in this directory beginning with the letter N.
National Hunt
Horse racing over jumps. The races with smaller obstacles are known as hurdles, the races with higher obstacles, e.g. the Grand National, are known as steeplechases.
Night at the Dogs
A popular form of evening entertainment in Britain in which apart from watching greyhound races the guests engage in such activities as eating, drinking (e.g. restaurants, bars), betting, and other attractions that vary according to the venue.
Nitting
If an ex-racing Greyhound lightly nibbles on you, it is their way of showing love and excitement a "love bite" so to speak. Consider yourself lucky as not everyone gets to experience this.
Non-runner
A horse that was originally meant to run in a race but for some reason has been withdrawn.
Novelty Bet
Placing a wager on a non-sports event with a sportsbook. For example, placing a wager on the Oscars in New Jersey. These kinds of wagers are more popular overseas.
NRNB (Non-runner, No Bet)
If a horse does not show up the stake is refunded as the bet is considered void. In some cases, for example in the run-up to the Cheltenham Festival, a bookmaker may offer money back on any horse that does not take part in a race (in contrast to the usual ante-post betting rules, where money is lost on any non-runner).
