What is this game supposed to analogize to in reality? I usually don't like to fight the hypothetical but in this sort of situation I feel like as player 2 I would assume they are including considerations from outside the game's rationality like a sense of fairness or generosity.
As far as I know the game has no direct real life analogy. But I believe it shows a weakness of game theory, and shows that sometimes to know what you are going to do you need to take into account what another person would do if that person were in a situation they would never expect to be in.
