Monty Hall Problem: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monty_Hall_problem
Here is a wrong reasoning. I am unable to find the flaw in it.
Given below I have attached three images which give us the three initial possibilities of the items behind the doors. Assume that "C" represents a car, and "G" represents a goat. The three compartments in each rounded rectangle are the three doors. The topmost node of each image represents an initial starting position (which can be seen only by the game show host). The colour in red represents the door chosen. So if "C" is in door number 2, and "C" is in red, then door 2 is chosen by the player. The color in green represents the door that the host chooses to show. If the player does not choose to switch, then the number of possibilities that the player wins are 16 among 32, so the probability that player wins is $\frac{1}{2}$ independent of the startegy! What is incorrect here?
Edit: I am looking for a counting argument for the question (and not a probabilistic argument). At the end the argument should be just like $\frac{no.~of~good~possibilities}{total~no.~of~possibilities}$.




The issue is that the two outcomes of winning or losing are not equally likely due to the conditions of the problem. Conditional probability helps avoid this situation, and is what the Monty Hall problem is about.
