So this happens every so often and it happened again today. I play a pretty intense game with someone, and it goes down to the last seconds and my opponent flags in what was probably a drawn endgame. So he requests a rematch and I accept. So in game 2 he checkmates me in 15 moves and takes a total of 9 seconds doing so. I accept another rematch and he winds in 31 moves - taking a total of 24 seconds to think. The last move I made was a queen sacrifice and he took it practically instantly.
Sound fishy to anyone? Should I report him for cheating?
Usually it's more surprising if someone doesn't take a queen sacrifice.

Why do you mention that? I'm not questioning the correctness of the statement - it just seems oddly placed. It's not really relevant to everything else you're talking about.
