I don't know what you mean.

One link was to a google search, and the other was to an article.

If you dig into the links you find that experimeters tell subjects to look for specific things in a video clip. (Expectation)

They look and do not notice the guy in the gorilla suit that walks across the scene in plain sight.

Moral of story:
Due to IB, you see what you expect to see, and you dont see what you dont expect to see.

This has poker implications. Poker is highly visual.

Ok, well, I saw the video you were talking about, but that gorilla was pretty obvious. Maybe it was because I was expecting it? I don't know, but I think I would have seen it anyways.
