I don't know how hard this would be, but I think it would pretty great to have some kind of multiplier to bets that are made early. I'm not very good at math, but I notice that someone could bet 1000 very early and then someone could bet 2000 at the last second. The last second better would win more tc. But the first better's bet had more risk because there was less knowledge on how the fight was going to end up.

This would make "profit stealing" less effective for the "profit stealers". And people who have very little tc have a chance to make good profit by being bold with their bets. And it would also give people more incentive to self bet.
