    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈1.5M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 1,968 winners, 17% more than the 1.7k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
