    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈765k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 plus Bonus Ball — 8,217 winners, 22% fewer than the 11k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
