You might want to check out Applied Cryptography by Bruce Schneier. It explains how to dice as well as cards over a network without being able to cheat. It also goes into many other areas in great detail.
- chrisduesing 17y agoI just checked the book using Amazon's "look inside" feature. It appears that his example is how to use cryptography to hide what cards you have from the other player until it is time to reveal them. I am more interested in how to apply the ideas from this article to involve an open, self enforcing protocol rather than data hiding.
