as per example
address x = 0x123;
address myAddress = this;
if (x.balance < 10 && myAddress.balance >= 10) x.transfer(10);
myAddress is this (so a contract). x is a specific address. So the transfer function will transfer the money from the contract balance to the x's address. In case x is also contract, this statement will apply (from the doc):
If x is a contract address, its code (more specifically: its fallback function, if present) will be executed together with the transfer call (this is a feature of the EVM and cannot be prevented). If that execution runs out of gas or fails in any way, the Ether transfer will be reverted and the current contract will stop with an exception.
