Small buy-in tourneys near LA

I'm out visiting my in-laws in LA for the holidays, and I was hoping to have a little fun in the LA poker rooms, as where I'm from there's very little B&M action. Anyway, does anyone have any recommendations as to where to play? I'm hoping to spend $70 or less.

I did a little research online, and I'm leaning towards the thursday afternoon tourney at Hawaiian Gardens. It's a $20+10 with $10 rebuys and a $10k guaranteed pool. I know the Bike and Hollywood Park also have similar tourneys, but they have smaller guaranteed pools. Any info would be helpful, especially on the structure of these tourneys.

Also, do B&M rebuys play like online ones, where people tend to gamble for a big stack in the beginning?

Thanks,
Will
