How To Block Poker Stars On Home Network?

I'm trying to block Poker Stars using blocking options of my Netgear Router. According to Poker Stars FAQ, they are using port 26002 and 443. By blocking those parts I see Poker Stars connecting slower, but it seems to be able to find its way around it. Possibly using different ports. By blocking port TCP 443 networks also blocks all web based mail services. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
