For instance, when Fed won the first set today you don't buy Fed just cause he is winning. Chances are, Novak will come back, unless you notice he is injured, tired or not interested. Hence, you buy Novak because you are getting him for cheap. Once Novak wins the second set it is up to you, if you want to hedge. It all depends on how much you want to win or are willing to lose. To give another example, in the women's match today, you should not have bought A Rad, even though she was a bargain after losing the first set. Bad body language, injury, etc... are all things you need to look out for. In that situation you buy Panetta, even though you are paying more because she has the upper hand, while her opponent is ready to throw in the towel.
