No.

The relevant factor in the calculation is (outcome - winning probability).
Let’s assume you played a game against someone and you probability is 0.6 (60%). If you win that game you get (1 - 0.6)=0.4 times something. If you loose it’s (0- 0.6)=-0.6 times … points (you loose more points because it was more probable for you to win than to lose.
Now in case of a draw it’s (0.5-0.6)=-0.1. You loose only a little points because this is the expected result.
