Sorry, going to try an explain anyway.Originally posted by The Lone Gunman View PostHe is always going to show me a goat so there is only ever a 50 50 chance that I have chosen the car already.
What has happened before makes no difference as far as I can see.
Dont try and explain it, I have a blind spot here. You will do well if you can make me understand it.
What happened before does matter. This isn't the same as rolling a dice, when what happened previously has no effect on what happens next. Because going down the route of picking a goat, the host will eliminate the other goat. So by changing your selection you get the car. If you pick the car first, yes it is 50/50.Originally posted by cailin maithHang on - there is actually a place called Cheddar??

It's the dodgy behavior of the quiz master!
Would he have opened a door revealing a goat if he knew you had the car?
Did he even know that the door he was about to open had a goat behind it?Comment
