This took longer than expected. I didn't read the specification closely enough to realize both jokers count as 53 rather than A == 53 and B == 54
Other than that, looking through Data.List for shortcuts was educational. I'm really like zipWith.
This could probably use a lot more orginization, and a bit more commentary. Fortunately the function names match the spec closely, which helps.
