Chicago Surprise is a card routine developed by Whit Haydn that substantially strengthens the impact of Chicago Opener / Red Hot Mamma.
Considered by Haydn to be the strongest card trick he does, it's the opener of his act and apparently of the first tricks he teaches his students. This 34-page booklet details all the ins and outs, psychology and theory of Whit Haydn's unique and very powerful version of the Chicago Opener.
But don't just listen to us; see what Michael Close had to say in his MAGIC Magazine review:
"The Chicago Surprise meets all my criteria for what a superior magic product should be: 1) an audience-tested, professional-caliber routine, 2) well written, 3) both handling and theoretical information (in other words, the how and the why) are included. Many professionals use Whit's routine. I'm sure you're going to want to as well."
