It is hard to believe, but 11 years ago, on June 10, 2008, I made my first post to this blog. You are welcome to check out "Welcome!"
(You can read forward from the beginning to today's post, but, mind you, that would mean reading 2,780 posts!)
It has been exciting to see how many people are willing to play the Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+), and how many have been generous in sharing their games and their analysis. The play ranges from exceedingly fast 1 0 bullet games to more serious 3 days per move games, and include online, correspondence, blindfold, and over-the-board games.
It has also been great fun to see The Database of Jerome Gambit and Jerome-related games grow to over 59,000 examples.
As ever, I have enjoyed sharing many scintillating wins with the Jerome Gambit; but I have not shied away from showing losses and refutations, as I find them. The best place to learn how to win with the Jerome is this blog; the best place to learn how to defeat the Jerome is also this blog.
Thank you, everyone, for your support. Thank you, Readers, for coming by.
