KKT92 front

would be my guess- OK middle, somewhat strong back

Spike is correct. Expect to lose about 0.92-0.96 points. But playing QQ22 or a straight in back is a bit worse, about -1.18 to -1.20 points.

The point system I described in the October 2+2 magazine gives those two arrangements the same value, unfortunately, though it does steer you away from the straight:

KKT92 87652 QQJ: 2 + 14 + 10 = 26 points
QQ229 T8765 KKJ: 4 + 9 + 13 = 26 points
9TJQK 87652 KQ2: 7 + 14 + 2 = 23 points
