The Italian Four Knights Jerome Gambit.
5...Kxf7 6.Nxe5+ Nxe5 7.d4 Re8
I like this move, especially in bullet chess. Black does not bother deciding which minor piece to rescue, he develops his Rook on an attacking file and makes White choose.
Black has a material advantage, better development, and he has castled-by-hand. But - he is facing the weirdness that is the Jerome Gambit, an opening that often prompts bad things to happen to defenders.
10.Bf4 Rxe4
Like this. Black decides, rather than retreat his Rook and lose time, to give up the exchange for a pawn. But, this is an illusion, as White immediately shows.
11.Nxe4 Nxe4 12.Qd5+
Oh, I see.
12...Kh8 13.Qxe4
From here, White quickly outplays his opponent, who occasionally contributes to the effort.

I thought for a second that the opponent was IM Eric Rosen, facing the Jerome Gambit again! (But it isn't...)
