When top seeds play the first couple of rounds they are heavy ML favorites. It's tempting to place a bet at many multiples of one's normal play thinking that it's a can't lose bet. (I've heard it described as dodging a steamroller to pick up a nickel on the road.)

Sometimes you really sweat it out if it's not an easy 3 set win but usually the fave prevails.

Your thoughts on these plays?
