Apparently, this is an 'urban myth' which originated from attempts to somehow make gambling 'biblical.' My research on this topic yielded the following 'best answer':
"The four card suits that we know today - Hearts, Diamonds, Spades, and Clubs - are a French design from the 15th century, but the idea of card suits is much older. The written history of card playing begins in 10th-century Asia, from either China or India, as a gambling game. That idea found its way to the ancient Muslim world before the 14th century. The oldest known deck of Muslim playing cards, like the playing cards of today, had four suits: Coins, Cups, Swords, and Polo Sticks. These decks of cards then showed up in southern Europe, but because polo sticks were unfamiliar to Europeans, that suit was changed to Scepters, Batons, or Cudgels (a type of club)."
