Jerome Gambit: Chesnesia World

 


A short YouTube video at Chessnesia World gets the Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+) just right, with a board titled "Disrespectful Chess Opening?" and the comment "Genius or Suicide? The Craziest Chess Gambit! #Chess #JeromeGambit #ChessTraps"

For every defender who faces the Jerome Gambit and laughs, there is probably one who takes umbrage that the attacker would ever dare be that disrespectful.

In my games, I have taken advantage of both responses.
