Triumph
From Magicpedia, the free online encyclopedia for magicians by magicians.
Triumph is a card routine developed by Dai Vernon that was first published in Stars of Magic, Series 2, N° 1 (1946) in which the deck is shuffled face-up into face-down after a selected card is returned. The deck then magically rights itself, except for the selected card. Dai developed the Triumph Shuffle to accomplish this effect which is a Strip-out Shuffle type.
