This is quite a mess. I don't see an easy way to fix it. I think a complete redesign is in order. The crux of your problem is code like:
player1hand=`deal_hole`

The shell must launch a sub-shell to process the `deal_hole` part. Within this subshell you mark some cards as being delt. Then the subshell exits and the main shell does know which cards were delt. You can't write a function that modifies global data and then invoke it in a subshell.

edit-patch

EDIT-PATCH(1)						      General Commands Manual						     EDIT-PATCH(1)

NAME

       edit-patch, add-patch - tool for preparing patches for Debian source packages

SYNOPSIS

       edit-patch path/to/patch

       add-patch path/to/patch

DESCRIPTION

       edit-patch is a wrapper script around the Quilt, CDBS, and dpatch patch systems. It simplifies the process of preparing and editing patches
       to Debian source packages and allows the user to not have to be concerned with which patch system is in use.   Run  from  inside  the  root
       directory of the source package, edit-patch can be used to edit existing patches located in debian/patches.

       It can also be used to incorporate new patches.	If pointed at a patch not already present, it will copy the patch to debian/patches in the
       correct format for the patch system in use.  Next, the patch is applied and a subshell is opened in order to edit the patch.   Typing  exit
       or pressing Ctrl-d will close the subshell and launch an editor to record the debian/changelog entry.

       edit-patch  is  integrated  with  the  Bazaar  and Git version control systems.	The patch will be automatically added to the tree, and the
       debian/changelog entry will be used as the commit message.

       If no patch system is present, the patch is applied inline, and a copy is stored in debian/patches-applied.

       add-patch is the non-interactive version of edit-patch.	The patch will be incorporated but no editor or subshell will be spawned.
