That's quite an interesting algorithm, especially the random selection part. I'd really like to read the original paper! I found a correctness-proof which includes peseudo-code in the papers "Correctness Proof of Ben-Or’s Randomized Consensus Algorithm"[1] and "The correctness proof of Ben-Or’s randomized consensus algorithm"[2].
