<p>So in the group project description I mention that the jokers are
either XB or XR to denote the color of the suit. While it was
originally my intent that the XB could only take on the face
values of black suits and the XR could only take on the face
values of red suits, I did not explicitly state this in the
project description document. For that reason, the jokers can
take on the identity of ANY card that is not in the hand -- but
you may not have two cards in any hand that are identical.</p>
<p>That should also drastically simplify some of the coding when it
comes to using the jokers.</p>
