I just watched an enjoyable TikTok video that is perfectly clear about the value of the Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+), warning viewers
Watch out, because the Jerome Gambit is trash...This is a terrible opening, never play it.
I don't think that those who already play the Jerome will be turned away by this argument. Besides, we all know that "the Jerome Gambit is trash" - that we win with, nonetheless.
Possibly the best impact of the video is that there will be a whole new cadre of defenders who will relax against the Jerome and produce second and third rate responses, because, after all, "the Jerome Gambit is trash". Expect the result to be more "1 - 0"s.
