  • Where chance put the count

The rings take the ≈19M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: match_5_b — 638 winners, 12% fewer than the 723 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
