Patent ID: 7775524

Claim:
A method, comprising: receiving a first wager from a first player; receiving a second wager from a second player, wherein the value of the second wager is the same as the value of the first wager; generating, by a processor of a computing device, a first random number by: determining a first card from an electronic deck, in which each card from the electronic deck includes respective indicia of an integer of the set {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}; determining a second card from the electronic deck; determining a first integer from indicia of the first card; determining a second integer from indicia of the second card; and determining the sum of the first and second integers, thereby determining the first random number; generating, by the processor, a second random number by: determining a third card from the electronic deck; determining a fourth card from the electronic deck; determining a third integer from indicia of the third card; determining a fourth integer from indicia of the fourth card; and determining the sum of the third and fourth integers, thereby determining the second random number; generating, by the processor, a third random number by: determining a fifth card from the electronic deck; determining a sixth card from the electronic deck; determining a fifth integer from indicia of the fifth card; determining a sixth integer from indicia of the sixth card; and determining the sum of the fifth and sixth integers, thereby determining the third random number; determining, by the processor, a first output of an algorithm, the inputs to the algorithm comprising the first wager, the first random number, and the second random number; setting, by the processor, a first payment for the first player to be the first output of the algorithm; determining, by the processor, a second output of the algorithm, the inputs to the algorithm comprising the second wager, the first random number, and the third random number, wherein the second output is different from the first output; and setting, by the processor, a second payment for the second player to be the second output of the algorithm.
