Curtain number one?
Pick one.
I’m supposed to get three curtains.

Door number 2.
You get to pick curtain number one or the mystery box.
That is all.
The curtain.
Now, if it was between a red snapper (very tasty) or what’s in the box though…

Statistically, it’s best to choose one, wait for them to eliminate one, and then switch.
Increases your odds from your original choice to 1/2 instead of 1/3.

Yeah we analyzed it in highschool LOL.
your original choice is 1/3.
After they take away a bad choice you have the option to switch.
If you stay with your original choice it’s still 1/3. It hasn’t changed.
But if you switch then your odds increase to 1/2.
I like it because it’s one of those things that doesn’t make sense intuitively, but it does after you think about it for a bit.

Wait, I’m confused. Start again….what do I do with the box? Is that the mystery?

Do I get the mystery box or just whatever is inside the mystery box?
Either way I want the box.

Mystery box of course! Even if what’s inside is complete garbage, I still gain a useful box!!
