k0: I am going to play scissors.
k1: I know Bob usually plays paper, so I'm going to play scissors.
k2: Bob knows I usually play rock, so he will play paper, and to beat him I will play scissors.
k3: Bob is aware that that I know he usually plays scissors, and that I'll play rock to beat him, so he will play paper. To beat that, I will play scissors.
etc.
