or to make it more clear...

You pick up cup A and don't look inside. Now you know that you have the cup that contains either $2X or $X. Should you switch? The answer is clearly that it doesn't matter, because the other cup either contains $X or $2X! And even if you were to look inside cup A and see it contained $1, this should not change the logic one bit.
