Jerome Gambit: What Your Chess Opening Says About You

 




As a chess-playing retired therapist, I couldn't resist following the link to "What your chess opening says about you", in particular a post by Xyzlev on the online Starscape wiki.

Here are a couple of clearly tongue-in-cheek examples

Bishops opening-  You're an 800 elo noob who hasn't learnt any opening, and wants to test if your oppoent will fall for the scholar's mate 

Italian game- You're 900+ elo and you have finally stopped trying to scholar's mate people, and you're slightly more willing to study opening theory than london system players. 

So - what is to be said about the Jerome Gambit? 

Jerome gambit- Why, just why

'Nuff said.😊
