    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈997k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 14,335 winners, 22% fewer than the 18k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
