That's as simple as it gets. If you have 2 boxes, that's all you have... REGARDLESS of how many are taken away before hand... if you have 2 boxes remaining, that's 2 boxes... the odds are... it's one of the two. That's it.. that's all.
When there are 2 boxes, there is no way that one has 2/3 of chance of being right. Get it? Got it? Good.

fuck man
you dont have 1/2 chances
you have 1/3 and 2/3
the host KNOWS where an empty box is
if he was just arbitrarily choosing a box then it wouldnt matter
but the fact is he is eliminating a KNOWN empty
therefore your new choice gives you the benefit of the revealed empty box
