The difference between 61% and 50 % percenct is pretty dramatic. Also 5% vs 25% is also extremely dramatic. Also if you take out PUBG the the percentage sold in the US and Europe would go up even more.
Wayyy more then 50% of steam sales are in the US and Europe.
Is that from personal experience or have you read it somewhere?
Just check steam stats

This shows USA sales are 34% of revenue, Europe is 29%, China is 17% and Russia is 5%, with 15% from other territories.
The blog estimated 34.48% for USA, 34.48% for Europe, 17.24% for China and 13.79% for Russia.
Thats a difference of 0.48% for USA, 5.48% for Europe, 0.24% for China, and 8.79% for Russia, although the blog doesn't account for the other regions.
I can't find sales numbers but the revenue matches the blogs' fairly well so I'd be surprised to see a discrepancy there.
