so users_has_cards has a check ( total >= decks + auctions )

and decks_has_cards  needs triggers on insert, update, and delete that 
manipulate the decks column of the users_has_cards record that
corresponds to that card.

This is probably goiung to make updates to the decks_has_cards table about 
10 times slower (should still be faster than you could have done in PHP)
