Everyone knows that you start with 0 points in a division and you gain or lose more LP if your MMR is higher or lower than your current division.
Now I know it is possible to skip divisions, but if your mmr is really high, could you gain lets say +50 or even go directly to a promotion after just one win (would be +100)? Or is the LP gain capped at some point and you just skip let's say 2 divisions or something like that after a won promotion?

I earned 50 LP maximum. I was in Plat1 while my MMR was around Dia2 players. I skipped 5->3, 3->1 every time. I do not think there is a cap in LP gains, but getting high numbers are really rare, they only usually happen when a player doesn't play for a couple of months resulting in league drops. I have friends that gained about 70.
I do not totally agree but, here is an interesting post:
