No it’s not.

Setting up is part of the job.

There’s no job here. It’s a prize for winning.

If you want to make a comparison, compare to receiving interest from a bank. There is havla’ah because they pay for Saturday, which includes part of Shabbos and part of Yom Rishon, but if that weren’t the case (which happens when Yom Tov falls on Friday and Shabbos or Shabbos and Sunday) we wouldn’t say that preparing the money for deposit makes it havla’ah.
