Where the money went
The rings take the ≈830k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 plus Bonus Ball — 497 winners, 14% fewer than the 577 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
