Zack is entering this Million Dollar jackpot game with an opponent Jim. Here are the rules --
There are THREE doors, with one of them having a Million Dollar check. Other 2 doors contain nothing but pranks. The rule is to choose the right door and win the Million. Since there are 2 contestants, there is a toss of coin to determine who gets the first chance.
Contestant 1 -- have to pick 1 out of 3 doors.
Contestant 2 -- have to pick 1 out of the remaining 2 doors.
Results will be revealed only after both the contestants picked their doors. So, contestant 2 won't know what was in the door picked by contestant 1 until he picks his door.
Now, Zack won the toss, and he can decide whether to go first or be the second contestant.
So, here is the problem -- Zack is confused, whether he should go first or second. Which one gives him more chance to hit the jackpot?
