Identify a card game where you discard playing cards based on die rolls
I played the game like this in the mid 1970's

Equipment:


2 Dice (d6)
1 Pile of pennies for each player, or tokens of your choice
1 Cup or bowl
1 Deck of playing cards for every 4 players


Example:


1-4 players = 1 deck
5-8 players = 2 decks
etc...


Setup:


Remove Jokers, Aces, Sevens and Kings and put them aside as they are not used.
Remove any extra cards starting with the Queens to ensure everyone gets an even number of cards.

Examples:


3 players = 1 deck. ( 40/3 = 13 ), remove 1 Queen
6 players = 2 decks. (80/6 = 13), remove 2 Queens
etc...

Place cup/bowl in center of the table.
Shuffle the cards.


Game Play:


To start the game, each player picks a card, the player with the highest card deals and starts.  If 2 or more pick the same high card, all others are out and the tied players pick again until only one gets to start.  If more than one game is played, the winner of the last game deals and starts the next game.
Game play is to the left.
Roll the dice.
If you roll a 7, you throw a penny in the pot and pass the dice to the left.
If you have the number thrown (for example you throw 3+5 = 8 and you have the 8 of hearts), you toss that card on the pile and pass the dice to the left.
If you don't have the number thrown, you throw a penny in the pot and pass the dice to the left.
If the person before you did not have the number matching the dice, and you have more than two cards remaining, you may throw a matching card yourself and then roll the dice as stated above.
You must roll the last two cards yourself. So you can't throw one of those if your neighbor fails to play a card.
The game ends when a player has no more cards.
They are winner and collect the pot.
