A game using a deck of cards to generate and preserve a random sequence of number pairs which simulate roll of two die. On the front and back of each card, a number is represented. The numbers represented on the front and back of each card are independent of each other. Each number is represented on the cards in the deck the same number of times as is any other number represented on the cards in the deck. The number of cards in the deck is a whole multiple of the largest number represented by any of the cards in the deck. In duplicate backgammon and other games which normally involve dice, the largest number is 6.
