Three playing cards, removed from an ordinary deck, lie face down in a horizontal row.

Immediately to the right of the King there's a Queen or two.

Immediately to the left of a Queen there's a Queen or two.

Immediately to the left of a Heart there's a Spade or two.

Immediately to the right of a Spade there's a Spade or two.

Name the three cards in order.

What I meant was, the "or two" could refer to a card of rank 2, not "or two spaces to the right/left". Thus, in the solution
K-spades, 2-(any suit), Q-hearts,
To the right of the King there's a 2 (as in a "Queen or two"), to the left of the Heart there's a Spade (as in a "Spade or two"), etc
