David,

It appears to me that the problem starts with the way you have filled in the
variable Deck. It should be a 'sequence of sequences', i.e. 52 elements,
each consisting of a bitmap as the first element and a value as the second.
You can check this by inserting 'print Deck[1]' or '? Deck[1]' after Deck
has been created.
I think Irv and/or David Cuny gave you examples how to fill the sequence
Deck.
