In my experience with piano practicing, the consecutive win method produced much stronger results when I came back the next day.
My experience was with practicing relatively short segments (up to ~1 minute per repeat) and unrandomized, but I found that if I practiced until one win (LLLLLW) I would invariably get it wrong the next day while if I practiced until three consecutive wins (LLLLLWLLWWLWLWWW), I would usually (3/4 of the time) get it right the next day.
Obviously this takes more time, but I found that if I tried to STOP after one win, I would repeat the exact same process day after day on the same segment while if I repeated until three consecutive wins then I could usually move on the next day. That is to say, STOPping after one win meant that the entire practice section was useless.
If your segment is too long to repeat until multiple wins, it seems like breaking the segment into smaller pieces, perfecting them, and then treating combining as a final goal could result in less total time.
