Guys, it's not that easy to win so many times in a row... jokes aside, you have to have good connection, determination, time... many things.
I managed to win 149 games in bullet I think once :)
it's computer 1 easy computer 2 medium lol
Doesn't matter, it can be a 700-rated comp, but rip internet means good-bye win.
i beat your record

Well, I won 60 games in a row against homeless men in Greenville, South Carolina, a few years back. That doesn't make me Kasparov. lol
When i was age 15 my employment was Chess Instructor for the City of Decatur Illinois. During the summer I would go to areas of the city and play simuls vs groups of kids. [ages 6 to 13 mostly]. Would come to an area [via my trusty motor scooter] and there would be about ten kids lined up with their chess sets ready for me to do a simul. When one lost, another would take his place or he would get to play again.
So, over 2 summers--must have played about 1300 kids. i would win and win--even a couple of times when i lost my queen--i would win. Finally the first summer after winning about 1400 games without lost or draw--i lost a game. Then the rest of the year--won all my games. The next summer when i was age 16--i won all my games. A conservative estimate of more than 4000 games in a row without loss or draw--almost all simultaneous.
Nice job, ponz. I have beaten several novices, giving them queen odds. In fact, I have never lost a game, when spotting someone a queen. Of course, I wouldn't give anyone good odds. lol

Thanks! The loss was on Aug. 22, a month and 6 days ago, but the 71 games looks right.
I'm guessing that as a premium member you were able to see a win streak stat, rather than having to count the games one by one (which is what I did)? If that's the case, then I'm glad that the stat counts blitz and standard games together, and also counts unrated games.

But it does make you literally a poor man's Kasparov.

Wow! Regardless of who your opponents were, that is impressive.
I live near Decatur, small world! Lol.

I have a small request to make: if any premium member could find the graph of my blitz rating progression history and post a screenshot of it in this thread I'd really appreciate it. I'm curious to see how it looks.
It should look a bit like this (this is someone else's graph, which they posted in another thread):
Thanks!
