The distribution (or tally) of chance events typically resembles a normal curve, with a majority of outcomes falling around the mean or average probability, and fewer outcomes as the probability becomes increasingly lower or higher. This is known as the normal distribution, which is a common pattern observed in many natural and human-made phenomena. A positive or negative skew would indicate that the outcomes are not evenly distributed around the mean, while a horizontal line would indicate a lack of variation in the outcomes.
