[QUOTE="Forloveoforange, post: 5078943, member: 1015"] The odds don't change, because like Melancer said after you, the key part of the equation is that the host is not randomly opening doors like a clueless bystander. If that were the case, then yes, the fewer the doors, the better the odds. Up to 50-50. If you had many doors, picked at random, your odds would steadily improve to 50-50, or until the magic door accidentally got opened. At least I think the odds should improve that way. I mean the other doors would then be using the same luck factor, so the doors left over would require the same luck. 50-50. Someone let me know if that's wrong. But since, part of the equation is that he will always open a non-car door, how could your odds change from 1 out of 3? You picked a door, he showed a horse door, blah, blah, blah. That's the equation. Still the same odds when the equation tells you he's going to open a non-car door. 1 out of 3. [/QUOTE]
