Description
Eckhard Boettcher released two versions of Per Clausen’s Psycho-Chips one in 2003 and the second one in 2008 in Germany. The first version was in fact Sam Dalal’s Super Psychic Chips rebranded and this second release was Per Clausen’s version of Sam’s effect but crafted with much nicer brass chips that Per Clausen was famous for.
As mentioned Psycho-Chips II is basically the same as Sam Dalal’s Super Psychic Chips but crafted with much nicer brass chips. It is also the same effect and method as Eddie Gibson’s Chinese Sting. However, Psycho-Chips is not the same as Per Clausen’s earlier Prediction Chips which at first I was confused with.
In the two routines provided in the German instructions the first routine is same as Sam Dalal’s, but the second routine discusses how the chips can be used to force any of the four colors which is a nice use of the chips if you need a very clean force of four colors.
Effect: The performer shows eight brass chips in a presentation case. The chips are inset with four black and four white discs on the back and have different colored spots on the front.
The chips are placed on the table, with the different colored spots on top. The four black chips are now turned over so that only the black spots show. The four white chips are placed in a row with the colored spots showing.
A spectator is asked to first shuffle around the black chips so that nobody knows which colored chip is where. He is than asked to try and guess which colored spot is at the bottom of each black chip. You place his selection, color unseen on top of the corresponding white chip. For example, he may think that the first chip is blue and you place it on the white chip with the blue spot – the next on the green and so on.
The magician explains that his chances of having correctly matched all the four colors by coincidence are almost impossible. However, the magician has temporarily gifted the spectator with psychic power. When the white chips are now turned over, the spectator can see that each and every color is perfectly matched.
