In order to do this you are going to need a data structure to record what posts have already been displayed.

A better approach might be to get the list of post ids from the database, shuffle them in an array (use PHP shuffle() function) and increment through the array of shuffled ids.

You could use the WP Session Manager plugin to store the array in a session variable.
