Annie has the king.

Annie can't have the ace as her statement must be false and it is true.

Betty can't have the ace because all three statements would be lies and at least one must be true. Betty can't have the king because a king holder only tells the truth and if she held the king, her statement would be false.

Cassie can't have the ace because an ace holder only lies and her statement would be true. Cassie can't have the king because all three statements would be true and at least one must be a lie.
