No that's that kind of trick I like.

Where do I find a book of those?

Its in one of Dai books i cant remeber what one, Ellusionest have it on one of there DvDs too. But this is an old trick too you see. So i hope you get the point of Mark Willsons complete course now...

It's also in Mark Wilson's book. (I don't work for him, honest)

Very nice effect, I do like that one.

I like the card section, I'm just working through it steadily.

I've just looked through and can't find it. I can find lesser versions, but not the full effect. Maybe I'm just missing it.

Define lesser version,. In essence Triumph covers a whole gamlit of routines, The classic way is the best tohugh IMO but Dave Forrest dose a route with 4 cards being found. The core pricple of triumph is that one card is found the other way in the deck.

That old school stuff is pretty cool eh?

Old school cards don't count :) They're timeless.

I think maybe you're talking above my head. I'm not that advanced to be able to know things by name or magician. I have no idea how that trick is done and want to learn it and tricks like it.

Check out Stars of Magic - the book. Beautiful, and only £20 for forty-something effects from the late greats.

As opposed to the 9 DVD set which looks quite fun.

It's there but I can't remember what he calls it. I'll have a look when I get home and let you know tomorrow.

Ah Davey I see what you mean that it is like Triumph that the cards right them selfs, but in Dai Vernons effect a selected card is shown face up once the pack has been spread out.

That is what makes triumph such a great effect that there is only One card that shows face up.

a couple of quick stories about triumph and there effects. The other week I was just messing about with cards at some dinner I was at for the comapny I am on the directors for, anyhoot a woman sitting there and asked about business cards because she knows a lot of people in banks and stuff long story short. i done triumph and her words where "After seeing that I am defently handing your business cards out"

Secod story. I was in a hotel in north devon (the home of smarvell, ifracombe) Any how you had one them all squins and bad jokes compares that run all the entertainment, he dabled in magic so i showed him triumph he nearly fell of his seat.

I think Harry Loryane has an effect similar to the self reversing pack but dont quote me on that.
