Pokerstars from China?

I'm on a business trip in China and don't have PS loaded on my work PC. I tried to connect to the PS website but it looks like it might be blocked? Any idea how I can get around this? I'm pretty sure if the app is loaded on my pc it should run. I played from China on my last trip here but already had the app loaded.

Many sports books and gaming sites are blocked in mainland China, including the Hong Kong Jockey Club and Betfair, so no surprise Poker Stars makes the list.

that sucks, last time I was here was like June 2006, and it was fine....
Possibly full tilt will work?

Lies. If you are rich (or have connections) you can get away with anything.
