    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈8.7M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 + Bonus — 119,416 winners, 12% more than the 107k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
