silvertabs explanation is probably as simple as it gets
your choice is not 50/50
your initial choice was based on 3 boxes
the host will always show you that one box is empty

Let's take a look at the 3 cases again LOL
1 = prize, 0 = no prize
CASE 1:
A B C
1 0 0
You pick A, the host open eighter B or C...you stay with your choice, you win....you switch, you lose... ONLY CASE WHERE YOU WILL WIN
CASE 2:
A B C
0 1 0
You pick A, the host open C....you switch,
YOU WIN...you stay with your choice YOU LOSE
CASE 3:
A B C
0 0 1
You pick A, the host open B....you switch,
YOU WIN...you stay with your choice YOU LOSE

this makes perfect sense
do not think of this in terms of only two boxes
