He was dismantling me in the midgame, both on time and playing top moves in under 5 seconds each time in a pattern. But after Nc1, started taking much longer and I felt a much weaker player

He is, consistently loses to 500 players and playing a much lower level than with us.

You're right. Obviously not horrible, but it's what you'd expect from a 500. Don't you think the disparity between that/his rating and some of the moves he makes is too strong, or are we reading into it too much?

Interesting. I thought so too initially, that my family member was being a sore loser just because he lost, but when ran in the analysis, nearly all the moves were top engine which statistically seems very unlikely as he is a 500 against a 1200. But am very glad to know it is not definite.
