        I have a question about the best way to hold back the top (face-down) card in the Triumph routine. It’s a little more than simply holding back the top card because the last card to fall before the top card has to be a face-up card (not another face-down card). So you have to time the falling of the cards from the hands such that the face-down pile is exhausted except for the top card, while at the same time the face-up pile is exhausted  before the top card falls! My question is this – would it make sense to hold back both a face-down and a face-up card, and then drop them in order at the end (face-up first, then face-down)? Any other suggestions/thoughts? Thanks.
