Oh how I hate it when I know how the trick is done and somebody still manages to fool me with it.

Nice! Enjoyed it very much. Do you ever do the reveal with a face down deck? Might be better that way (or maybe not, just my opinion)

An in-the-hands Triumph is a great effect to have in one's arsenal, IMO. However, I've never cared for the gaping discrepancy when the conjoined stacks are turned over for the two riffles [to show "half face up and half face down"] in the Bannon routine.
I resolved this for my own handling with a simple move that lets me to riffle both ends fully (all the cards at each end), as well as flip-flop the entire double packet back and forth a few times showing each side (ala thr Larry Jennings display from Outstanding Triumph). This allows for an extremely fair display of the apparent half-up/half-down condition [of the deck], and raises the deceptiveness of the routine exponentially. TW

Very nice. I do a version of that as well -- a mixture of Bannon's with some an element of Josh Jay's for a recent edition of magic. I love that you got rid of the Braue Reversal -- it looked very smooth.

Feher, this is great!! Love the way you made the adjustment that was after the Braue in the original. That is a lot smoother as well.
