My opponent in this game finished second in the tournament (see "Overrated!") with a score of 13-5, including a vicious score with the Black pieces of 8-1 against the Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+). As you will see in this Chapter and next, we split our two games.Temmo - perrypawnpusher

1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+ Kxf7 5.d4
A line recently popular – brain50 played it in all 9 of his games as White in this tournament (his game against me will be seen in a later Chapter). Temmo did so 6 times, and Sir Osis of the Liver 4 times. In another ChessWorld Jerome Gambit theme tournament, dandoo played it 6 times.
After the following pawn capture, the game has transposed to Wright - Hunn, Arkansas 1874 (see "Brilliant but not sound").
5...exd4 6.Qd3
Played also by Temmo vs Sir Osis of the Liver (0-1, 32).
I think that White should try 6.c3 here, aiming to build a full pawn center after cxd4. There is also the trap 6...dxc3 7.Qd5+ winning back a piece.
6...d5 TN 7.Ng5+ Kf8 8.Qf3+ Qf6 9.exd5 Qxf3 10.Nxf3 Nb4 11.Na3 Nxd5
There's not a lot of excitement left in the game.12.Nc4 Bf5 13.Nfe5 Re8 14.0-0
This puts his Knights at risk. Better was the supportive 14.Bf4.14...b5 15.g4 Bxc2
Sloppy: 15...bxc4 won a piece.
16.Nd7+ Ke7 17.Nxc5 bxc4 18.Re1+ Kf7 19.Rxe8 Kxe8 20.Bg5 Ngf6 21.Re1+ Kf7 22.h3 Re8 23.Rxe8 Kxe8 24.Bxf6 Nxf6 25.Ne6
Forking three unprotected pawns and apparently winning one, but there will be no time for that.
