Jerome Gambit: Chess Pro

 

chess pro's YouTube video, "Jerome's Gambit Magic: Make Your Opponents Disappear" shows an interesting game with a strong ending: 

 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+ 

4...Kxf7 5.Nxe5+ Nxe5 6.Qh5+ Ke7 

The earliest example I have of this move in The Database is perrypawnpusher - gelgel, blitz, FICS, 2010 (1-0, 7). When my opponent realized that he was giving back the two sacrificed pieces, he moved on. 

7.Qxe5+ Kf8 8.Qxc5+ Ne7 

As in Bill Wall - SMNN, FICS, 2013 (1-0, 27).

Black develops a piece, instead of playing the typical 8...d6.

9.d3 d6 10.Qc3 Be6 11.O-O h6 

All Jerome Gambit players should experience this position at least once in their career: a safe King, with attacking chances against the enemy, unsafe, King - plus 2 extra pawns.

12.f4 Qd7 13.f5 Bf7 14.f6 

Opening lines against the King.

14...gxf6 15.Qxf6 Rh7 16.Nc3 Re8 

Rushing to the defense of His Majesty, but actually cutting off a route of retreat.

17.Nd5 Nxd5 

Exchanging an attacker, good for the defense? But White has something else in mind.

18.Qg6 Ne7 

The Knight returns. Instead, Black had the mundane 18...Nf4 19.Qxh7 Ne2+ 20.Kh1 Nxc1 21.Raxc1 Qe6, settling for being a pawn and the exchange down. 

19.Bxh6+ Rg7 20.Qxg7 checkmate
