Just won my 14th dym on the bounce are these types of games down to being having a bit of luck or having a small bit of skill.

Both. Really depends what stakes though and how much of it came from showdown value, eg winning flips, avoiding flush draws etc etc. 

I think my highest is 16+ but that's at £5 and above. 

14 wins in a row isn't common though. Expect a downswing soon because variance is a b***.

Thanks I have lost 6 games on the trot playing my own style with play only the very best hands early on then down to the last four trying to steal to keep my chip stack in the top 2. So winning 14 on the trot there must be more luck involved as I played the same way

Well played, it's a combination of the two in my opinion.

Keep going, only another 37 to go until you break Del560's site & world record!

Thanks Pat going over hand history only won about 2 flips when behind on the board when chip leader, rest of the time betting out with the best hand on the turn and the hand held up about 7 times. Rest of the time waited for the players to knock each other out when in 2nd chips.
