Interesting. I got 15/20, which I suspect is about average.
I thought the eyes were helpful. But one thing that really struck me was the speed with which some smilers stopped smiling, and the appearance of their faces when they stopped smiling. Real smiles are a response to something pleasant, and there should be some carryover; some lingering of the smile, however slight.

Yeah, I noticed the same thing. I got 15/20, but I barely looked at the eyes at all during the experiment. I looked at the way their faces would return to the resting state after the smile - for the real smiles, the smile would linger a little bit, or else there would be a "weak means strong" type of tell, where the actor would force his/her mouth to almost a frowning position to overcompensate. For the fake smiles, the transition from blank expression to smile and back was smoother.

After finishing the test, I read the blurb about the eyes and looked back at the ones I got wrong and they seemed so obvious. Clearly the eyes are the way to go.

Interesting site.

19/20. Watch the bottom-outside of the eyes. If they stay straight (i.e. don't "scrunch up"), the smile is not genuine.

Glad you all enjoyed it! It would be interesting to have the same test without about 100 different faces/smiles, and see how B&M players do in comparison to exclusively online players.

I would also be interested to see how poker players do against non-poker playing people.

I'm not entirely convinced that it was human, dude.

16/ 20. Quickly apparent that eye movement and conformation is most revealing.
