  • Prize each, log scale
  • Where chance put the count

The rings take the ≈34M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 729 winners, 21% fewer than the 926 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
