FICS rated blitz game, 2007
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 h6
Are we there yet?
No, not yet.
Will there be any presents??
I don't know.
4.0-0 a6
4.0-0 a6
Are we there yet?
Not yet.
Truth be told, I was hoping we would "get there," because I didn't think that the two extra pawn pushes helped Black's defense to the Jerome.
5.Nc3 Bc5 6.Bxf7+
We're there!
6...Kxf7
In this delayed Jerome Gambit, Black merely has the advantage, not a winning advantage.
7.Nxe5+ Nxe5 8.Qh5+ Ke6
Yippee. If White is going to have a chance, it's going to be against the enemy King in the middle of the board.
9.Qf5+
A thematic move, to be sure, compared to the more direct 9.d4 Bxd4 10.Ne2 Bc5 11.Nf4+ Kd6 12.Rd1+ Kc6 13.Qxe5 when it is clear that White's d-pawn sac was worth it.
The fly in the ointment is that here, as in the game, Black can answer Ne2 with ...c5 and keep his advantage.
9...Kd6 10.d4
Rybka now says White gets very little for the pawn.
10...Bxd4 11.Rd1 c5 12.Ne2
Still giving it the old Jerome Gambit try. Black can now strengthen his defense with 12...Ne7.
12...Kc7 13.Nxd4 d6
Cool!
14.Ne6+ Bxe6 15.Qxe6 Nf6
Black is winning, and the position is becoming less complicated by the minute, a bad sign for White.
16.Bf4 Re8 17.Qb3 Nxe4 18.Bxe5 Rxe5 19.Qf7+ Qd7 20.Qf3 Qf5 21.Qxf5 Rxf5
Can we go home now??
No, not yet.
22.f3 Ng5 23.Re1 Kd7 24.Rad1 Re8 25.Rxe8 Kxe8 26.Rxd6
22.f3 Ng5 23.Re1 Kd7 24.Rad1 Re8 25.Rxe8 Kxe8 26.Rxd6
Can we go home now??
No, not yet.
26...Re5 27.Kf2 Ke7 28.Rb6
26...Re5 27.Kf2 Ke7 28.Rb6
Can we go home now??
Not yet.
28...Rf5 29.Rxb7+Kf6 30.Rb6+ Kf7 31.Rxa6
Now?
Maybe...
31...Ne4+ 32.Ke3 Nd6
A present!! We don't want to go home now!
33.Rxd6 Ke7 34.Rd3 Rh5 35.h3 Re5+ 36.Kf2 g5 37.Re3 Rxe3 38.Kxe3 Kd6 39.Ke4 c4 40.Kd4 Black resigns
Wow! Can we do that again??
