Now, I'm sure the prices are not incremented by the second (don't remember reading about this). But the whole gifting in the movie (in the books the action is all focused on Katniss) is taken care by Haymitch, so I can argue that 30 seconds can make a differece to him, but it's just an opinion. My main point is, they are shown live due to the gambling aspect, like you refered, and the possibility to outsidders to intervene in the outcome. | |
