The following game arrived with the note: jerome gambit made my opponent rage quit!! won in less then 17 moves
Oh, my.
It can be hard to sit down to a game that features an opening known as the "quiet game", only to face the wild attacking Jerome Gambit - especially when it disrupts your play and enlivens your opponent.
Hard to continue in those circumstances.

3 0 blitz, lichess.org, 2020
1.e4 e5 2.Bc4 Nc6 3.Nf3 Bc5 4.Bxf7+
In blitz you have to move quickly, which means you have to think quickly - and one of the quickest thoughts is When in doubt, attack the Queen. In this case, the result is not good.
What is involved in Black playing 6...g6 - the offer of a major piece - was discussed in "Jerome Gambit: What About the Rook?"
8.Qxh8 Qg5 9.Qxh7+ Kf8 10.O-O
White's Queen has escaped after capturing the Rook, and his King has castled. He is ahead the exchange and 3 pawns. This isn't exactly what Black had planned.
10...Be7 11.d4 Qf6 12.e5 Qf5 13.Nc3 b6 14.Bh6+
Develop a piece, exchange off a defender, check with the Queen - this move does a lot.
14...Nxh6 15.Qxh6+ Ke8 16.Nd5 Bb7
A final slip.
17.Nxc7+ Black left the game
