In this last look at 6.c3 line in the 5...Ke7 defense to the Blackburne Shilling Jerome Gambit (see "Variation on A Theme" and "Long Lines: Seeing Unclearly") we see a game which is mostly about pawns.
As if that were not enough.
Kuskus - omarrafi
blitz, FICS, 2009
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Nd4
The Blackburne Shilling Gambit.
4.Bxf7+
The Blackburne Shilling Jerome Gambit.
4...Kxf7 5.Nxe5+ Ke7
6.c3 d6 7.cxd4 dxe5 8.dxe5 Qd3
An alternative mentioned in the previous game.
9.Qe2 Qxe2+ 10.Kxe2
It is not likely that Black was thinking of this position when he played 3...Nd4.
10...Be6 11.d4 c6 12.f4 Rd8 13.Ke3 Ke8 14.Nc3 Bb4 15.f5 Bc4
So far, White's position has largely been playing itself, but now, in the next few moves, Black contributes to the pawns' mobility.
16.Bd2 c5 17.d5 Nh6 18.Kf4 g5+
Apparently not expecting White's next move.
19.Kxg5 Nf7+ 20.Kf4 Bxd5
Giving a piece back for a couple of pawns, but it is not enough.
21.exd5 Bxc3 22.Bxc3 Rxd5 23.e6
This is what Black overlooked
23...Rf8 24.exf7+ Rxf7 25.Rhe1+ Kd7 26.g4 h5 27.h3 Rd3 28.Rad1
Black resigned
White has the extra piece and the extra pawn.
