Ed & Matthew Asner To Co-Host 2nd Annual Poker Tournament To Benefit Autism Speaks

STUDIO CITY (KCAL9) — Ed and Matthew Asner stopped by KCAL9 Monday to talk about their 2nd Annual Poker tournament that benefits the Los Angeles chapter of Autism Speaks.

The tournament will take place Saturday at 1601 Cloverfield Blvd., Suite 1000 in Santa Monica.

The winner will receive a two-night stay in the Presidential Suite at the beautiful InterContinental San Francisco, including a $250 credit to Luce, the hotel's Michelin Star-rated restaurant (based upon availability; excludes taxes, gratuities and parking).

Last year, the event raised $40,000 for Autism Speaks, which is the world's leading autism science and advocacy organization, dedicated to funding research into the causes, prevention, treatments and a cure for autism; increasing awareness of autism spectrum disorders; and advocating for the needs of individuals with autism and their families.
