Alert! Alert!



In my last post I mentioned that I have a Google "alert" set for "Jerome Gambit". I griped that it rarely returned anything, and when it did, it mostly gave a link to one of the posts on this blog (not always a current one).

However, once again it linked me to a game at lichess.org. The contest is a one-minute, "bullet" game featuring the Jerome Gambit!

dwcgc at lichess.org is a player from the Netherlands with a taste for unorthodox chess openings - played very quickly (in the following game, slightly slower than a second a move). Take a look.

I also found a recent game with dwcgc playing the Busch-Gass Gambit (see "Worth a Second Look... "Part 1Part 2 and Part 3), a sort-of "reversed Jerome Gambit."
