At some point yesterday (not sure exactly when) I lost the ability to connect to the following sites:

Party skins, Stars, UB, Paradise, Full Tilt, Prima Skins, Betfair and True Poker.

The only ones that still worked were Ladbrokes, VC, CelebPoker and Games Grid of the sites that I tried.

All other internet functions still worked fine (MSN, web, email).  It just seems to be the poker sites where the problem lies.

A couple of friends within 15 miles of me had the same problem but I've seen nothing to indicate a widespread issue on any of the forums.  I don't think the problem is ISP related as we use different ISP's.

Anyone else experiencing anything similar or have any idea what might be causing it?

Been no issues at Stars, if it is all of those sites, I suspect it may be a routing problem nearer to your home

Sounds like this is the likely cause so thanks for the replies jb and Simon.

I remain resolutely break-even for the day!

Of course not.
