    Game 3
    Door 2 is a goat. Do you want to swap doors?
    Yes.

    Am bored. Can we assume I pick Door 3 first and swap to another door and work it out from there?

              Add a new task to your timesheet. I'm presuming you are not on the bench.

                Sounds preferably to that crappy Aygo I won earlier.

                BTW that doll had a nice tach on it. Something you want to share?

                    After 15 games you won 6 goats and 9 cars. That’s more than average (50/50) and more than you’d have won if you didn’t swap (5 cars on average, although if you’d always have chosen and stuck with door 3, you’d have won in this instance: also 5 cars )
