1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+
4...Kxf7 5.Nxe5+ Nxe5 6.Qh5+ Ke6 7.f4 d6
This is certainly one of the more annoying defenses to the Jerome Gambit. Not scary. Not complicated. Just annoying.
Black returns a piece and draws most of the life out of the position.
8.fxe5 dxe5 9.d3 Nf6 10.Qh3+ Kf7 11.Qg3 Be6 12.Be3 Bxe3 13.Qxe3
Black has a piece for a pawn, plus better development. He can soon castle-by-hand to safeguard his King.
However, at this point White won on time, allowing bfcase to catch DeDrijver for a tie for third place, each with 2 wins and 4 losses.
