Where to put Byes for a 10 Player Tournament

We normally have ten players in our pool tournaments, so we use a 16 person tournament bracket board.

In that scenario, where do the six byes go? I know the first one goes in the 1st spot, second goes in the 16th spot, third goes in the 8th spot, fourth in the 9th spot.

But where would the next two byes go?

   Are you holding standard single-elimination tournaments? If so, does this example help?

   The key is the do all of your byes in the first round, and have them evenly distributed across halves and quarters.
