White's plan should be to strike quickly, before his opponent gets his bearings.
perrypawnpusher - Dogyou
blitz 10 0, FICS, 2009
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+
4...Kxf7 5.Nxe5+ Nxe5 6.Qh5+ Ke6
This move was new to me. It has some of the characteristics of the more usual 8...Qf6, although it doesn't immediately threaten the exchange of Queens.
Sharpest was 8...Qh4+, entering the malestrom of the Nibs Defense.
9.fxe5+
More precise might be 9.d3, as Rybka suggests that the top two responses are 9...Kc6 and 9...Nxd3, not necessarily a club player's choices. (Rybka's third choice is 9...Nh6, which is what I would go with.)
9...Qxe5 10.Qf3 Nf6
I've had this position six times before (6-0) and played 11.d3 each time. For some reason, in this game I varied here.
11.Nc3 a6
Again, one of the interesting (and advantageous) things about the Jerome Gambit is how often a defensive move by the Black King is the best choice, despite the adage about not moving a piece too many times.
Here, Dogyou prevents Nc3-b5+, but three of the top four moves that Rybka likes are King moves, the best being 11...Kc6, maintaining a clear advantage for Black.
12.d3
Better here was 12.d4, throwing White's pieces against the enemy Queen and King, e.g. 12...Qxd4 13.Bf4+ Kc6 14.Rd1 Qc4 15.e5+, and Black has only a small advantage.
There is something about this kind of set-up that makes my opponents prone to an optical illusion. I don't understand it and i can't explain it. There is a blatant threat – is it that hard to see?
12...c6 13.Bf4
This is the sixth time I've gotten away with this, but the trick is as old as Vazquez - Giraudy, Mexico, 1876 (remove White's Queen Rook) 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+ Kxf7 5.Nxe5+ Nxe5 6.Qh5+ Ke6 7.Qf5+ Kd6 8.d4 Bxd4 9.c3 Bb6 10.f4 Qf6 11.fxe5+ Qxe5 12.Bf4 Qxf4 13.Qxf4+ Ke7 14.Rf1 Nh6 15.Qe5+ Kd8 16.Qxg7 Re8 17.Qg5+ Re7 18.Rf8 checkmate
13...Bd4 14.0-0-0
Not bad, but the simple 14.Bxe5+ followed by 15.d4 was stronger.
14...Bxc3
Black's game goes to pieces.
15.bxc3 g5 16.Bxe5+ Kxe5
17.Qf5+ Kd6 18.Qxf6+ Kc7 19.Qxh8 b5 20.Qe5+ Kb6 21.Qd6 Black resigned
