After a couple of months of grinding 1/2, 1/3 and 2/5, I was a few thousand dollars up from live poker, had some big swings, lent a bunch of money out to friends, got some money stolen from me, and didn't really keep track of my wins/losses. I'm pretty sure I made a profit of at least $3k in that time, but I had very little to show for it because of all the money I lost outside of the poker room.
Literally just 3 days ago, I downloaded 'poker income' and started keeping track of all my wins and losses. Since then, I've been on a massive heater and won 6/6 sessions.
Session 1 (3 hours at 1/3): +$300
Session 2 (3 hours at 1/3): +$1495
Session 3 (4.5 hours at 1/3): +$682
Session 4 (3 hours at 2/5): +$482
Session 5 (1.5 hours at 1/3): +$548
Session 6 (1.67 hours at 2/5): +$395
Total profit for past 3 days: $3902 after 16.67 hours
Win rate: $234.12/hr
Obviously this is an extremely small sample size and very unsustainable in the long run, but still, it feels good to win almost $4k in just 3 days of playing predominantly 1/3 live. I've gained a lot of confidence from this and if my heater continues, I'll be able to permanently grind 1/3 and 2/5 live instead of working my current fast food job.

Guess you are blinded by the mountain of chips to see how bad
that is...especially in live poker.
I concede that it was a bad Cbet. I just wanted to know
why it was a bad Cbet, hence why I got a bit defensive about it - because I hate people telling me "you played this hand poorly" without actually explaining to me exactly what I did wrong and why it was a bad thing.
