Optical Illusion (II)

I usually post my recent games shortly after they are played, but the following Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+) slipped out of order. My apologies to my opponent and readers; no slight was intended.

1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+

4...Kxf7 5.Nxe5+ Nxe5 6.Qh5+ Ke6 7.Qf5+ Kd6 8.f4 Qf6

9.fxe5+ Qxe5 10.Qf3 Nf6 11.d3

The odd position mentioned in "Optical Illusion (I)."

11...Bd4 12.Bf4 Qxf4 13.Qxf4+ Be5 14.Qc1 Rf8

Black has only two pieces for his Queen, but he uses them to fight back.

15.Nd2 Ng4 16.Nf3 Bf4 17.Qd1 Ne3 18.Qe2 c6

19.g3 Bh6 20.h4 Kc7 21.Ng5

Now White gets some relief.
21...Bxg5 22.hxg5 Nf5 23.exf5 d5 24.Qe5+ Kd8 25.Qd6+ Bd7 26.Qxf8+ Black resigned
