However, if the agreement is that the kitchen gets 3% of total tips pool. You pay $0 because the total tips pool in your example is zero. Again, at no cost to you, and if there were, it would only cost you a portion of your tips. Not out of pocket.

I don't see why the $20 that you say belongs to you in the beginning would not belong to you by the end of the night.
The tip out is based on revenue, but still comes from your tips.
