    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈502k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 9,956 winners, 33% more than the 7.5k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were noticeably more popular than average — a draw full of birthdays makes more small winners, a draw of high numbers fewer. That is the crowd, not the machine.
