Default Is there a leak in my game, or is this normal?

I've been looking over all my hands at the end of a session lately and I've noticed a lot of the time I've won more 200BB (where me and villan have 100BB) pots than I've lost, but my session profit is much less than that difference. For instance, today I won 5 200BB pots, and lost 1. Every pot besides those 6 were below 80BB. For the session I ended +230BB.

I lose lots of small pots where my c-bets fail or my 3-bets fail. I play about 19.5/16.5/3.3 and I think I cbet about 80% of the time.

Am I making lots of -EV moves in these small pots and not realizing it, or am I just being results oriented over the past couple weeks?

I wouldnt say its normal. I think it is unimpressive poker (although i play that way too) when the only monies we win is when we get to showdown with the best hand. We should be + monies in pots that dont go to showdown, even though im not sure the best way to achieve that.

this is such a general and bad question. it's probably just variance, but you can't throw out 5 or 6 numbers over a few days and then ask people to detect your leaks.

depends on what the hands were that u won the 200bb pots against
big difference b/t them being insane coolers as opposed to ur big hand vs. somebody's terrible call-down / bluff
