Jerome Gambit: Fingerfehler?

I have said many times on this blog that the Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+) is a refuted chess opening.

Nonetheless, it creates enough chaos on the board that a prepared and observant first player can often emerge victorious.

The lichess.org player angelcamina does very well with the Jerome, even with a time control of 1 minute per game.

About the following game we can only say, as Horace wrote in his Ars Poetica, that Even Homer sometimes nods

1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+ 

4...Kxf7 5.Nxe5+ Nxe5 6.Qh5+ Ke6 7.f3 

White's rare last move is a bit of a head-scratcher.

Looking at The Database, there are 2,757 games with the alternative 7.Qf5+, and 2,822 games with the alternative 7.f4.

There are only 15 games with 7.f3.

The Database shows that angelcamina has played 7.Qf5+ 40 times, and 7.f4 54 times.

He has played 7.f3 3 times.

So, maybe the move in the game was intentional, perhaps experimental; maybe it was a finger slip.

7...Nf6 

Or 7...Qf6 8.c3 Bb6 9.d4 Nd3+ 10.Ke2 Nxc1+ 11.Rxc1 Ne7 12.Nd2 g6 13.d5+ Kf7 14.Qh6 d6 15.Rf1 Bd7 16.Rae1 Ng8 Black resigned, angelcamina - robinlourme, 1 0 bullet, lichess.org, 2020. 

A clue to the position and game: it should be noted that White can not capture on e5 on move 9, which would have been possible after 7.f4.

8.Qf5+ Kf7 

Or 8...Kd6 9.f4 (9.b4 Bxb4 10.c3 Ba5 11.d4 Nc6 12.Ba3+ Nb4 13.cxb4 Ke7 14.bxa5+ d6 15.e5 Bxf5 16.exf6+ Kxf6 17.Nd2 Re8+ 18.Kf2 Bd3 19.Rae1 Qd7 20.Ne4+ Bxe4 21.Rxe4 Rxe4 22.fxe4 Qa4 23.Bc1 Qc2+ 24.Kg3 Qxe4 25.Rf1+ Kg6 26.Rf4 Qd3+ 27.Rf3 Qxd4 28.h4 h5 29.Be3 Qg4+ 30.Kf2 Qxh4+ 31.Rg3+ Kh7 32.Bg5 Rf8+ 33.Kg1 Qxg3 34.Be7 Rf2 White resigned, DutchLiLi - cchiluba, 1 0 bullet, lichess.org, 2024) 9...Neg4 10.e5+ Kc6 11.exf6 Re8+ 12.Kd1 Nxf6 13.Nc3 d6 14.d4 Bxf5 15.d5+ Nxd5 White resigned, angelcamina - Charona, 1 0 bullet, lichess.org, 2019
