He can't do that, can he?

Another Bill Wall game, a win with the Jerome Gambit, which leaves observers fuming, "He can't do that, can he?"

1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+ 

4...Kxf7 5.Nxe5+ Nxe5 6.Qh5+ Ng6 

7.Qf5+

A different kind of "nudge" than the usual 7.Qd5+. The reason will be apparent in a couple of moves.

7...Qf6 8.Qxc5 d6

or 8...Nf4, Wall, Bill - Tony7, Playchess.com, 2011 (1-0, 48);
or 8...c6, Wall, B - Smith, R., Chess.com, 2010 (1-0, 23); 
or 8...N8e7 Wall, B - Doantaung, Chess.com 2010 (1-0, 18) 

9.Qxc7+ N8e7 

10.0-0 Be6 11.Nc3 Rac8 12.Qxd6 

Not only is White attacking with his Queen, he's gobbling pawns. He can't do that, can he?

12...Qe5 13.Qa3 Rhf8 14.Qxa7 Bc4 15.d3 Be6 16.f4 Qc5+

That's one way to stop White's Queen.

17.Qxc5 Rxc5 18.f5 Nxf5 19.exf5 Rxf5 20.Rxf5+ Bxf5 

The smoke has cleared, and White is up three pawns.

21.Be3 Ne5 22.Rf1 Kg8 23.Bc5 Rf7 24.Re1 Black resigned
