    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈4.8M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 + Bonus — 71,105 winners, 20% more than the 59k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
