The destroyer of intermediate Chess Players
For those who don't play chess, winning six games in a row - at any level - is a pretty hard thing to do, especially if you are trying to pull an ELO all-time-high where the stakes and the nerves are at full.
If you play chess then you already know this is a good streak. Maybe not a Hikaru-like streak but it is still a good one.
I managed to destro four of my six opponents and I was able to create some counterplay and take advantage of two of my opponents' mistakes and, ultimately I won six matches in a row.
I am now over 1250 ELO in rapid chess on chess.com, I am still very far from my goals of reaching 1500 ELO points before 2023 and, to put some context into it, people who take lessons and pay courses can grow 200-300 points per semester. I've gone from 800 to 1450 in 9 months by just playing, watching videos and paying attention to patterns and analyzing my games afterwards.
Right now, 1250 ELO puts me on the 89.5% percentile in rapid, which means that I can outplay almost 90% of the chess players in the biggest chess platform in the world. Not bad at all, huh?
Maybe I should've put the time I spent playing into good use, but we all need some leisure time and I decide to play chess when I have a spare moment, it relaxes me and takes my mind off the stressful parts of my day.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy watching me destroy six opponents in a row!

I am in the same position as you. I have currently a win streak of 11 including beating several 2000+ players! Can´t go on forever, and as soon the streak is over, my rating will plunge again.
Damn, 11 is a lot! Yeah that's one thing that happens to me all the time, it's all psychological, once you lose the streak you keep losing games and sometimes I even enter tilt mode, that's how I lost 300 pts in 3 days lol
Before I come in such a mode, I force myself to quit playing for the day :)
My highest winning streak is 8 in blitz. I am in between 1000 and 1100 rsting in it.in rapid my rating is 1258.i am learning same like you by watching videos and playing with others.i sent you a friend request and its username is unknownhumnabeing.plz accept it.we can play once.
It's incredibly hard to have such a streak that sometimes I even don't want to keep playing to keep it intact haha
