x = a blank position, constrained only by order: AQxxx has no king (a jack is fine); xQxxx = one card above the queen (A or K), the queen, three below. A hand with no x is dealt exactly.

3 Scenarios

Deals are tried against the scenarios in order; the first whose conditions match takes the deal. Leave the last one without conditions so every deal lands somewhere.
