You get to pick one door. The chances of picking the car are 1/100. They open the other 98. You can either stick with your original choice or switch to the one remaining door. Your original choice still has a 1/100 chance of being the car. Agreed? The chances of the one other remaining door having the car...99/100? Just because you have two choices doesn't make it a 50/50 proposition.
