Trumped Triumph

This is a Triumph with a HUGE surprise ending, and one that nobody sees coming. Based on John Bannon's seminal "Play It Straight" effect, this version allows you to spread the cards to cause only a spectator's selection to turn face up. But that you instantly respread the deck (no moves) to show that all the cards of a matching suit also turned face up.
It's impossible and unexpected, yet a logical climax to a Triumph routine. Joshua Jay teaches you every step in great detail, and the best part is that you'll be able to incorporate this routine into your repertoire almost immediately. Not at all difficult to do!
Customer reviews for Trumped Triumph
In my opinion, for something you will use so often, the download is a steal.
of the suit are show, you can thoroughly shuffle (or have the spectator shuffle) and then strip out the 13 suited cards.
The tutorial is spot on and explains everything you need to know in great detail.
For anybody wondering what to spend your VI points on this is a must for any card magician

I love Asi WInd's Triumph and Triumph Again as it is a brilliant example of making the impossible possible and is definitely a magician fooler. Jay's Trumped Triumph, however, is probably just as amazing as Wind's version for a lay person and you get a standard triumph + the straight triumph kicker without any more effort than it takes to do Bannon's original trick.
Well worth learning and well worth doing. As Triumphs go, I like this one and Jay Sankey's Back In Time Triumph--both have incredible impact on the audience, are easy to do, and put a unique spin that augments the original triumph plot.
My only complaint: I called that number he showed at the end, and they just hung up on me.
A very simple, direct, straight-line approach. Being able to do a "Play it Straight" display with no moves AT ALL should come as a complete surprise. I can't think of anything that would make it a better trick. (Well--changing the name to "Jay's Triumph" wouldn't hurt. But the trick itself is a knockout.)

It was almost self-working, the reason I say that is because you always have to add one thing: Yourself!
I'm only eleven years old, and a lot of tricks require big hands to be able to accomplish them. This one, however, your hands can be any size.
I recommend this trick for all levels of magicians!

Michael asks: Is the Faro shuffle mandatory to perform this, or will another shuffle work?
- 1. Mustafa Kemal responds:You need a faro-type shuffle, i.e. cards need to be interlaced as perfectly as possible. The faro is a complex move, i.e. have small nuances to work on, but what helped me learn it are the great routines that you can do with it. My advise is, if you want to learn the faro, find a routine that inspires you and get to work.
- 2. Mark responds:Something to bear in mind: this is an in-the-hands faro--it shouldn't be hard to do with a little practice. And as Jay says in the instructional material: the (two) faros definitely do not have to be perfect. And I got the display move to work on the third try.
