The following game is a reminder to defenders to learn a bit about the Jerome Gambit - and a quick lesson (see "Jerome Gambit: Hot Mess" for an earlier example) for Jerome Gambiteers on how to punish a careless second player.

5 0 blitz, lichess.org 2024
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+

Hoping to save the Knight, but this not the way to do it.
7.d4
Going for the quick win. Instead, White recovers his sacrificed material with 7.Qf5+ Ke7 8.Qxe5+ Kf8 9.Qxc5+.
7...Bxd4
If you are not familiar with the Jerome Gambit, you probably would not find 7...Bb4+ 8.c3 Nd3+ 9.Kd2 d5, keeping the advantage.
8.Bg5+ Black resigned
