"This just doesn't seem to be my day" is a lament that many chess players make. Certainly the defender (who appears to be receiving "Jerome Gambit odds") in the following game can agree.

1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+
4...Kxf7 5.Nxe5+ Nxe5 6.Qh5+ g6
This is an exciting move, as it can often lead to the Blackburne or Whistler Defenses.
7.Qxe5 Qf6
Black shows that he is unfamiliar with the Jerome Gambit, and disaster follows, quickly. Just not his day.
8.Qxc5 d6 9.Qe3 Ne7 10.O-O Re8 11.d3 Kg7
Dangerously placing the King on the same diagonal as the Queen.
12.Bd2 d5 13.Bc3 d4 14.Bxd4 Nd5 15.Bxf6+ Kxf6 16.Qd4+ Kf7 Black resigned
