Video overview.
Still don't know what an "INVERSE video" is? Check out INVERSE episode 1 for an intro and explanation.
This 5 edition of the INVERSE video series comprises entirely of KQ hands in FR NLHE cash games. Like AJ, KQ can be a tricky hand to play – you're never going flop TPTK with KQ. SplitSuit runs through 9 hand histories at $100NL that cover a range of common situations you'll find yourself in when playing KQ in Texas Hold'em.
A lot of the hand histories revolve around hitting TPGK and safely getting as much value from the hand as possible. There are a bunch of other interesting spots along with those too of course.
For more hand-specific concept videos, check out Playing AA, Baby Pairs and INVERSE 4 (AJ).
