    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈16M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 6,225 winners, 15% fewer than the 7.3k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
