    Try connecting using a proxy.

    Try using www.hidemyass.com or http://proxify.com/

    Try replacing www with any other word. A lot of the time, the word poker is only blocked if it's preceeded by www.

    e.g pie.boards, mars.boards all got me into boards until they were blocked again. You can also use www aswel. I used www.pie.boards.ie for ages.

    What i do now, is put the company name in after www and that seems to sneak past the filter, so if you're with IBM, www.ibm.boylepoker.com gets you in.
