Bicycle® Playing Cards presents the 2010 "All-In" for Kids Poker Benefit at our new location, Commerce Casino.

The “All-in” for Kids tournament presents guests with an opportunity to play poker in the company of some of Los Angeles’ most influential entertainment and legal community members, poker players and celebrities.

More importantly, the funds raised will help to support The Alliance for Children’s Rights which has provided legal services to nearly 70,000 impoverished, abused and neglected children in Los Angeles since 1992.

Each entrant receives an acknowledgement letter for the charitable contribution portion. The fair market value for the entry fee into the main tournament is $50 and $15 for the second chance tournament. Hollywood Park furnishes necessary IRS W-9 forms for all winners.
