OK, this is from the so called "Monty Hall Paradox" - please those who do know the answer don't post it, let's see if people can do the math by themselvez here.

Imagine a TV show where you have 3 doors, and you could get a prize hidden inside one of those doors, or you could get nothing at all, if you choose the door that dosen't have the prize. Now, you select a door and is not allowed to open. The host for the TV show then opens another door, and reveals that there's nothing behind that door. He them asks if you want to change your mind and pick the other door, the one you didn't pick and the one host didn't open. Now, do you change doors? And why?
