    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈9.1M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 + Bonus — 29,504 winners, 18% more than the 25k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
