The Chicago Opener (Red Hot Mamma) Tutorial 

Nice! Thanks

Thanks dude. Learnt this trick in approx. 20 min. Gotta work on the dub lift thing. Showed my mom she had no idea. I left a like

Great tutorial. In my own version I do it either like invisible deck and have them think of a card or I start out by showing them the faces and having them pick one, then I cull the odd-backed card from the top/back of the deck to be directly on top of the selection, cutting the deck to have the odd-backed card and selection on top (a completely logical move). Squaring up the deck and turning it over, it looks like the whole deck would match the odd-backed card. I say "OK, this is your card. There's one thing unusual about it, know what it is?" When they say no, I do a double-lift and flip over their card, spreading the rest of the deck to show that they've picked the only odd-backed card. Then I turn the two top cards over as one, put the odd-backed one on the table face-down, and continue with the rest of the routine.

I wish people would mention the creator of the original routine. It is Al Leech.

The easiest one might be the Hindu force but the better one is the hofzinser spread force. Let the card on the bottom ride under with the deck as you spread the cards in the deck from left to right asking the soectator to touch a card. When they touch one you simply quickly position that bottom card to where they touched a card in the spread, and take it out to show it is the force card. Way better than the Hindu force. I've had a child tell me it wasn't the card they stopped at when using the Hindu force. I never used it again!

This trick I used to open my lectures about the methods in musicology. I was underlining the necessity of re-reading the documents, the sources by every new generation of scientists, not relying on what we know was written down on the red card. Sometimes the red card contains a scripture that reveals something else.

Great trick and tutorial 👍👍

Why give away other people's ideas? I assume you didn't invent this effect.
