Trapped Times Two
The latest game from Bill Wall (with notes by him):
I played an interesting Jerome Gambit yesterday, and with a little luck I won in 22 moves. I sort of trapped his king and queen at the same time.

1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+
4...Kxf7 5.Nxe5+ Nxe5 6.Qh5+ Ng6
7.Qd5+ Ke8 8.Qxc5 d6 9.Qb5+
[As seen in Wall - Yunfan, Chess.com, 2011, (1-0, 18) and Wall - Zhu, Chess.com, 2011, (1-0, 19) - Rick]
9...Qd7 10.Qe2 Nf6
11.d4 Qg4 12.f3 Qh4+ 13.g3 Qh5 14.Nc3 c6
15.e5 dxe5 16.0-0 Bh3
I expected that. Perhaps better is 16...Kf7, threatening 17...exd4.
17.Re1 Kf7
Or 17...Rf8 18.dxe5 Nd7.
18.Ne4
I wanted him to move the f6 Knight so I could get in g4 and not have hims sac to open up my king. I wasn't sure about 18.dxe5 Rhe8 19.f4 Bg4.
18...Nxe4 19.g4
This looked better than 19.Qxe4 exd4 and I am in trouble.
19...Qh4
The only place for the Queen and it seems trapped and out of play. I thought I could hold after 19...Bxg4 20.fxg4 Qh4 21.Qxe4.
20.Qc4+
Better than 20.Qxe4 Rhe8 21.Qf5+ Qf6.
20...Kf6
The king has to move somewhere. Perhaps better is 20...Ke8 21.Rxe4 Rf8.
21.Rxe4
I almost played 21.dxe5+ Nxe5 22.Qxe4, but Black has 22...Qxe1+! 23.Qxe1 Nxf3+ and Black wins.
21...Rhe8? 22.g5+ and Black resigned
If 22...Kf5, then 23.Qf7 mate. Black could hold out a little bit more with 22...Ke7 23.Rxh4 Nxh4 24.dxe5 Nxf3+ 25.Kh1, then 26.Qb4+, but White should win this.
