quick question regarding steam's extra copy

Closed

some games, gives you a copy for your friend once you buy them , what happens if you bought them as a gift? do you get the second copy in your inventory? or does it go to your friend's?

I think to the friend.
I think the person redeeming it gets the extra copy, the same way that before when you bought a gift, the extra copies showed up after you used the gift on an account.

Have you googled it? There are probably several reddit threads with the answer.
