Jerome Gambit: Teamwork

angelcamina has shown many times that when it comes to bullet chess, the rapid time control and the wild Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+) make excellent team mates.

Some examples follow.

11.O-O Ng4 

It is always tempting to attack the enemy Queen, especially in bullet play, even when it is not the strongest move.

12.Qg3 N6e5 

13.f4 Nc4 

The routine 13...Nc6 would keep the game in balance.

The Knights become active, but do not improve Black's game.
