WIN BIG IN LITTLE TOKYO: LTSC’s DISKovery Center HOSTS THIRD ANNUAL “TEXAS HOLD ‘EM POKER TOURNAMENT”  

LOS ANGELES, CA (September 13, 2008) – The DISKovery Center, a project of the Little Tokyo Service Center Community Development Corporation (LTSC CDC), will host the 3rd Annual Texas Hold ‘Em Poker Tournament, a benefit fundraiser on Saturday, September 13, 2008, in Little Tokyo. The Greater Los Angeles community is invited to support this annual event and join in on this high stakes game of poker.

Over a hundred players are expected to compete for this year's grand prize of two round-trip tickets on American Airlines. Early bird registration is $50.00 before September 4, 2008 and regular registration is $75.00 per person. The Tournament will take place at the historic Chop Suey Café & Lounge, once known to locals in Little Tokyo as the Far East Café.  After the 1994 Northridge earthquake, LTSC was able to save the building and rehabilitate it to its original beauty.  

Located in the heart of Little Tokyo, the DISKovery Center provides low-cost or free technology access to the local community and residents from throughout Los Angeles, offering computer and technology training, free computer public access for members, and an equipment lending program. Older adults, seniors, youth, and others wanting to gain or improve their technology skills are served by the DISKovery Center. All proceeds of the tournament will benefit the DISKovery Center to upgrade their computer lab and provide services for people of all backgrounds and ages to bridge the Digital Divide.
