A joker does not have a suit, nor a number, so it would not fit in the example table anyway.


Arguably Joker is the number, and like Ace is 1 you might use 0 or 14 depending on math preferences as a surrogate number (or stick to the character designations like A, K, Q, J).

Decks with four jokers typically have suited jokers. Decks with two are typically (though not always) red/black and could be given arbitrary suits (say hearts/spades).


Represent the suit as J and number them sequentially? Also not all games use jokers.
