World's Greatest Magic: Chicago Opener by L&L Publishing - DVD

\n

Der Kartentrick, auch bekannt als Chicago Opener, hatte seine Ursprünge in einem Effekt, den Al Leech erfunden hat und ursprünglich als Hot Card Trick No. 1 bezeichnet wurde, später dann als Red Hot Mama. Der Trick wurde sehr populär und viele Magiker fügten ihn ihrer Aufführung hinzu, darunter Frank Everhart und Jim Ryan, die jeweils für seine Erfindung kreditiert werden (Everharts Version wurde in einem Buch von Frank Garcia veröffentlicht, Ryan hingegen in einem Buch über sein eigenes Magic von Phil Wilmarth.)

\n

Obwohl seine Ursprünge verworren sind, bleibt er eines der seltenen Effekte im Kartenmagic - ein beeindruckendes Wunder, das relativ einfach zu durchführen ist. Was das Publikum sieht, ist, dass der Magier eine frei gewählte Karte verursacht, die ihre Rückseite von einer Farbe in eine andere (z.B. von Blau auf Rot) ändert, die dann auf den Tisch gelegt wird. Der Performer behauptet, dass er den Effekt wiederholen kann und ein weiteres Karten auswählt. Dieses zweite Versuch scheitert - keine zweite rote Karte wird gefunden - aber der Performer macht gut, indem er die erste rote Karte umdreht und zeigt, dass sie sich magisch in die zweite Wahl verwandelt hat.

\n

Auf diesem DVD-Video treffen Sie auf eine Reihe von Weltklasse-Magikern mit ihren eigenen einzigartigen Interpretationen dieses wunderbaren Kartenkonjurationsstücks. Bill Malone präsentiert den Trick im Mentalism, Michael Close fügt einen sehr lustigen und beeindruckenden Präsentationsstil hinzu, inklusive einer sehr originalen Methode. Michael Ammar präsentiert zwei Handlungen für seine Signatur-Version von Red Hot Mama. Er führt auch die traditionelle Handlung durch und lehrt sie, ebenso wie Daryl, der einige wichtige Finesses hinzufügt. Schließlich fügt Dan Fleshman einen starken Karten in Brieftasche-Endsatz hinzu, um diesen bereits spektakulären Trick noch zu verstärken.

\n

Es gibt einen Grund, warum dieser Effekt seit seiner ersten Veröffentlichung 1950 eine wichtige Rolle in den Aufführungen der meisten professionellen Kartenmagiker spielt - es ist ein Killer-Trick. Wenn Sie also Chicago Opener oder Red Hot Mama nennen, und Sie als Magier einen Deck von Karten benutzen möchten, um zu unterhalten, dann müssen Sie diesen Trick lernen - und Sie werden keinen besseren Ressourcen finden, als die Darbietungen und Erklärungen auf diesem DVD-Video.

Originale englische Beschreibung

The card trick popularly known as Chicago Opener had its origins in an effect invented by Al Leech that was originally called Hot Card Trick No. 1 and then later rechristened Red Hot Mama. The trick became immensely popular and many working performers immediately added it to their repertoires, notably Frank Everhart and Jim Ryan, who each sometimes get credit for its invention (Everhart's version was published in a Frank Garcia Book as Chicago Opener and Ryan's as Red Hot Mama in a book on Ryan's magic by Phil Wilmarth.)

Despite its muddled origins, it remains one of card magic's rare effects - an astounding miracle that is relatively easy to perform. What the audience sees is that the magician causes a freely-selected card to change its back color (say from blue to red), which is then tabled. The performer then claims to be able to repeat the effect and a second card is selected. This second attempt fails - no second red card is found - but the performer makes good by turning over the first red card and showing that it has now magically changed into the second selection.

On this DVD, you'll meet a number of world-class performers with their own unique takes on this wonderful piece of card conjuring. Bill Malone is first with a mentalism presentation for this classic while Michael Close adds his own very funny - and amazing - presentation, complete with a very original method. Michael Ammar presents two handlings for his signature version of Red Hot Mama. He also performs and teaches the traditional handling, as does Daryl who also adds some important finesses. Finally, Dan Fleshman adds a powerful Card to Wallet kicker to this already spectacular trick.

There's a reason that this effect has been a part of most professional card magicians' repertoires ever since its first publication in 1950 - it's a killer trick. So, whether you call it Red Hot Mama or Chicago Opener, if you're a magician who aspires to entertain with a deck of cards, you need to learn this trick - and you'll find no better resource than the performances and explanations on this DVD.
