C/C++ :: Pass Value From Object To Array

I am trying to write a poker program. I created a class to create a deck of cards..and then shuffle the deck..Now I am trying to pass value from the deck to an array to deal a hand..so 5 cards to player1[] array.. I tried doing it directly such as.

for (int j = 0; j < 5; j++) {
getCard=deck[j].toString();
}

But I would get error such as [Error] no match for 'operator=' in 'player1[j] = deck[j].Card::toString()'

So then I tried using a pointer..

char *getCard;
getCard = new char;
for (int j = 0; j < 5; j++) {
getCard=deck[j].toString();
}

but I would get this error [Error] void value not ignored as it ought to be. So how can I pass a value from the object deck..to an array? or should I be doing it another way?..I tried to think of a way to do it via a function but really got hung up there..

here is full code

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <iostream>
#include <ctime>
#include <algorithm>
using namespace std;
const char* FaceString[13] = {"Ace", "2", "3", "4",
"5", "6", "7", "8",
"9", "10", "Jack", "Queen", "King"};
