I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

very cool, and one of the few optical illusions that actually seem to work for me.

question: how much do the instructions "Stare at the black cross until the pink dots disappear." play into this? Like if you just look at the picture, most people will naturally stare at the black '+' anyway. Do the instructions tell your mind to make them disappear, or does it just happen naturally?

F-ck... I been staring at this thing for 10 minutes now and I still see the pink dots.

And now when I look away to get some work done I see pink dots where there ain't none.

F-ck. I gotta stay outta this forum... sh!t never goes good.

BTW... Spoon - sig is hilarious.

The instructions I've always seen were to just stare at the black +
