  • Where chance put the count

The rings take the ≈36M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 1,831 winners, 23% fewer than the 2.4k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
