I was at the casino the other night, and two people at my table disagreed about the right etiquette on this hand:

Player 1 pushes all of his chips into the circle (Lets say it was $600). The Cards are dealt and Player 1 is dealt an 11 against the dealers 6. Everyone at the table recognizes this is a great moment for a double gets excited, but Player 1 doesn't have any additional cash to cover the double.

Player 2 says "If you aren't going to double will you let me put my money out there for double. They agree and he ends up doubling for less (Let's say it was $300). The card is dealt and it is a 10 for 21 and then on top of it the dealer busts. So the bet pays out $900.

So here is the dilemma - Player 1 starts demanding a tip from Player 2 and Player 2 has no intention of paying player 1 anything.

What is the right thing to do here? Is Player 1 owed anything from player 2 for letting him in on a good opportunity? If player 1 isn't owed anything should player 2 still offer?

Notes:

• I was sitting between player 1 and player 2
• There was no discussion of Player 2 owning Player 1 anything until after the win
• Player 2 was definitely not loaning Player 1 the money. If they had lost the hand Player 1 wasn't going to be paying back player 2
