I have signed up for the 24-player "Italian Battleground" tournament at Chess.com with hopes that after 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 at least a few of my opponents (we are in groups of 6 and play 5 games simultaneously) will play 3...Bc5, allowing me to unleash the Jerome Gambit.
Curiously, I have Black in all 5 of my games to start. Perhaps that will allow me to keep my Jerome Gambit plans under cover for a while.
(So far I have won one of my games, but my opponent played 3...Nf6 in our second game. No Jerome Gambit, here.)

Of course, I will share my Jeromes as they are completed.
