10...Ng4
When in doubt, attack the White Queen.
11.Qe2 Kf7 12.h3
An alternative was the humorous 12.f4, as if 12...Nxf4, play might continue 13.0–0 Qf6 14.Qf3 g5 15.Nd5 Qd4+ 16.Kh1 Rf8 17.h3. White takes a short cut and winds up with h2-h3 immediately.
12...N4e5 13.d4 Nc6 14.Qc4+
Protecting the d-pawn, but, again, it could be let go, as 14.0-0 Nxd4 15.Qc4+ Ne6 16.f4 would be the answer.
14...Ke7
These kind of things happen in 3 2 blitz games, alas. Perhaps Black was too busy trying to unravel the mysteries of the Jerome Gambit.
15.Bg5+ Kd7 16.Bxd8 Rxd8 17.O-O-O Ke7
White has to keep moving forward, with one eye on the clock.
18.Nd5+ Kf8 19.Nxc7 Rb8 20.Ne6+ Bxe6 21.Qxe6 Nb4 22.a3 Na6 23.g3 Re8 24.Qxd6+ Kg8
25.e5 Rbd8 26.Qxd8
He has plenty of pawns.
26...Rxd8 27.f4 Nc7 28.c4 a6 29.d5 b6 30.Rhe1 Kf7 31.f5 Nf8 32.g4 h6 33.d6 Ne8 34.b4 a5 35.e6+ Kf6 36.e7 Black resigned
White threatens to "lose" a pawn in the most delightful way: promotion.
