Use a container or an array to hold card ref.
Player and cards are different obj.
And I think card is not a part of player. It is there no matter whether a player object is created. So use "using" is better than composition.

I think a better approach would have been to declare an array of cards in the Player class. Because logically it doesnt make sense for a player to inherit a card.

I agree with the idea that composition instead of inheritance should be used in this case.

Class Player
{
Card cards
....
}
Class Card
{
enum number
enum sign
...
}
Class CardGame
{
Player[] playersInGame
Card[] cards
DistributeCardToPlayer(Card c, Player p){}
...

}
