There are few places better to be in the cold months of January and February (and even March) than California. There are few places in California that are better to be than Los Angeles, so all you poker fans are in luck if you plan on attending the World Poker Tour: 2008 LA Poker Classic.
Running form the tail end of January to the very beginning of March (01-24-2008 to 03-03-2008), the LA Poker Classic will run at the Commerce Casino, where pros and regular players will convene to try for World Poker Tour glory. Due to the location you can expect to see some Hollywood types slumming at the poker tables as well, which can be fun. There are a whopping 30 events, including the WPT Invitational, where the stars will definitely play (because they are invited.)
