Slow Down and Pay Attention

I have been adding a number of FICS (Free Internet Chess Server) games to The Database, and I have run across too many games where White is so excited (it seems) to be playing the Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+) that he or she races into danger with both eyes closed... The results are not pretty.


Please: slow down and pay attention; the King (or Queen) you save may be your own.
