  • Where chance put the count

The rings take the ≈554k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 plus Bonus — 711 winners, 16% fewer than the 843 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
