1.

Bicycle Casino

The "Bike," as it's known, ranks as one of the world's largest card casinos and is renowned for its world-class poker tournaments. If you don't know who the sucker at the table is after the first 20 minutes of playing, it's probably you.

2.

Commerce Casino

"Poker Capital of the World"? Maybe not, but Commerce certainly has one of the largest poker rooms, with what looks like an airport hangar full of card tables. Most of the crowd, clad in Members Only jackets (and not in a retro-chic way), come for serious card play.

3.

Hawaiian Gardens Casino

Neophytes looking to get experience before jumping into the card shark-infested waters of the Commerce or Bicycle Casinos can try their luck at this Polynesian poker paradise.

4.

Hollywood Park Casino

Poker, ponies, bingo and Pink's hot dogs! This massive and multi-dimensional casino offers everything a diehard gambler could desire.

5.

Hustler Casino
