The Monty Hall Problem

The intriguing story of the mathematical brain teaser that asks a game show contestant to choose one of three doors to find a single prize. After the person makes their choice, the host revels one of the remaining two doors to be a dud. Should the contestant change their mind and pick the remaining door, or stick with their initial choice?

Yes, pick another door. Only one door has the prize so by elimination you are standing behind one of those dud doors.
