Stuck getting an oil change and DoND is on the TV. Watching it play out, I can’t help but think that it’s rigged. They’re telling a story and feeding on the audience, with the player always winning despite the mathematical odds. It looks so fake. Has anyone ever looked into it?
At it’s core, it’s probably not fake, but for entertainment purposes, they are definitely going to milk any good back stories and get the audience pumped up.
The whole game is a long drawn out version of the Monty Hall problem.
Pick a box and either take a chance that you picked a high value box, or accept the known offer, which is the average of all unopened box values.
If there are no goats, I object to the Monty Hall analogy. I love the Monty Hall problem because your chance of winning a goat is very good. I always wanted a goat.
I hear that if you happen to have a paper clip, yes, a paper clip in.your.purse RIGHT NOW!!, you may win a GOAT! or, this AmAnA RadarRange!!
