Reasons for winning:

Arlen - He wanted to escape from his boss, so if he won, he would be giving his family a better life. It would also mean that they no longer had to work in factories and Arlen would no longer have to work for sadistic bosses.

Genevieve - She is in pursuit of power, so winning would mean more power.
