It was an intimate game, Clara being one of only two other players, not including Jepsom. A previous conversation with Boal had lead her to believe that the Agency had paid a hefty price-tag to get her into the game, and the small number of players compared to the large crowd of spectators who had arrived to watch the game seemed to prove that. The table was long with plenty of space, ample room in fact to have squeezed another 5 or 6 people in should they have wanted to. Clara was sat almost directly opposite the dealer, Jepsom to her right, sat just beyond the corner of the table so as to be facing the dealer and all of the other players, and the remaining two players were spread out to her left. Both were men, and appeared to be polar opposites of one another. The first guy looked to be in his mid to late thirties, overweight and unhealthy in his appearance. He had light brown hair with a receding hairline, and wore round glasses that didn't complement the natural roundness of his face.
