I have tried the different solutions with the "winning streak" search criteria, but I can't seen to fit them in my situation.
I have the following tables:
BetHistory:
+-------+-------+-----------+
| id | betid | betstatus |
+-------+-------+-----------+
| 63281 | 63280 | lose |
| 63280 | 63279 | won |
| 63279 | 63278 | lose |
| 63278 | 63277 | lose |
| 63276 | 63275 | won |
| 63275 | 63274 | won |
| 63271 | 63270 | won |
| 63270 | 63269 | won |
| 63269 | 63268 | won |
| 63268 | 63267 | won |
| 63267 | 63266 | lose |
| 63266 | 63265 | won |
| 63264 | 63263 | won |
| 63262 | 63261 | won |
| 63261 | 63260 | lose |
| 63259 | 63258 | lose |
| 63258 | 63257 | won |
| 63257 | 63256 | lose |
| 63256 | 63255 | lose |
| 63254 | 63253 | won |
+-------+-------+-----------+
Bets:
+-------+--------+----------+
| betid | gameid | username |
+-------+--------+----------+
| 63280 | 7506 | player1 |
| 63279 | 7506 | player2 |
| 63278 | 7506 | player5 |
| 63277 | 7506 | player2 |
| 63275 | 7506 | player12 |
| 63274 | 7506 | player12 |
| 63270 | 7506 | player5 |
| 63269 | 7505 | player2 |
| 63268 | 7505 | player12 |
| 63267 | 7505 | player2 |
| 63266 | 7505 | player5 |
| 63265 | 7505 | player1 |
| 63263 | 7505 | player2 |
| 63261 | 7504 | player2 |
| 63260 | 7504 | player5 |
| 63258 | 7504 | player5 |
| 63257 | 7504 | player2 |
| 63256 | 7504 | player2 |
| 63255 | 7503 | player2 |
| 63253 | 7503 | player1 |
+-------+--------+----------+
EventGames: - another table that stores relation between games and events, which could easily be integrated, as needed.
I need help in framing the MySQL statement to determine the players that have at least five (5) straight wins.
Much thanks in advance.
Edit: the table below may be easier:
+-------+-----------+--------+----------+------+
| id | betstatus | gameid | username | team |
+-------+-----------+--------+----------+------+
| 63281 | lose | 7506 | player12 | C |
| 63280 | won | 7506 | player7 | A |
| 63279 | lose | 7506 | player3 | B |
| 63278 | lose | 7506 | player10 | B |
| 63276 | won | 7506 | player1 | A |
| 63275 | won | 7506 | player1 | A |
| 63271 | won | 7506 | player3 | A |
| 63270 | won | 7505 | player7 | B |
| 63269 | won | 7505 | player1 | B |
| 63268 | won | 7505 | player10 | B |
| 63267 | lose | 7505 | player3 | A |
| 63266 | won | 7505 | player12 | B |
| 63264 | won | 7505 | player10 | B |
| 63262 | won | 7504 | player10 | B |
| 63261 | lose | 7504 | player3 | A |
| 63259 | lose | 7504 | player3 | A |
| 63258 | won | 7504 | player10 | B |
| 63257 | lose | 7504 | player7 | A |
| 63256 | lose | 7503 | player7 | A |
| 63254 | won | 7503 | player12 | B |

I tried using the answers posted, and I thank you all for the bright ideas.
Complex as it is to check for streaks, I opted to just add an listener that whenever a game announced the winner, winning sides's streak are incremented and the losers will start with 0.
I then can just simply query the table with the streak condition.
Much thanks,

This sql is applied to united table which is named BetHistory
from your Edit. The idea used is taken from @Matt's comment.
select Distinct(t.username)
from
(select bh1.username, bh1.id, count(bh2.id) as streakGroup
from BetHistory bh1
left join BetHistory bh2
on bh1.id < bh2.id and bh1.username = bh2.username and bh1.betstatus <> bh2.betstatus
where bh1.betstatus = 'won'
group by bh1.id, bh1.username) as t
group by t.streakGroup, t.username
having Count(t.id) >= 5
Demo here. team
and gameid
columns are omitted as they are not used.

You can use variables to get the desired result:
SELECT username, MAX(streak) AS streak
FROM (
SELECT username, betstatus, id,
@streak := IF(betstatus = 'lose', IF(@uid := username, 0, 0),
IF(@uid = username, @streak + 1,
IF(@uid := username, 1, 1))) AS streak
FROM (
SELECT b.username, bh.betstatus, bh.id
FROM Bets AS b
INNER JOIN BetHistory AS bh ON b.betid = bh.betid) AS t
CROSS JOIN (SELECT @streak := 0, @uid := '') AS vars
ORDER BY username, id) AS s
WHERE streak >= 5
GROUP BY username
ORDER BY username
Note: I have used the original table structure.
Note 2: The query uses nested IF
expressions to properly initialize and access variables.
