(With 2h9hQhKhAh 2s3s4s6c8c 6sKcAc--- no diamonds--- the flush is about +0.55 and AA/KK is +0.40. With 2h9hQhKhAh 2s3d4s6c8d 6dKcAd, a more even distribution of suits, the flush is +0.54 and the AA/KK split is closer, about +0.44. If we make the 3 and the 8 hearts, the AA/KK is about +0.33.)
So Mark, do you mean if no diamonds there is more chance they will play a lower flush on the back and our flush becomes stronger?

Well... I wondered if that had a noticeable effect. It looks like it doesn't change the value of the flush much, it is always about +0.55 points and always the best option (in the variations I tried.) Perhaps if it were a weaker flush there might be some impact.
But the value of splitting AA in front and KK in back does vary, probably because your opponent is more likely to make a flush if one suit is especially live.
