The Semi-Italian Jerome Gambit.
5...Kxf7 6.Nxe5+ Nxe5 7.d4 Bxd4 8.Qxd4 Qf6 9.Be3
Note, 9.f4 allows 9...Nf3+ 10.Rxf3 Qxd4+ winning White's Queen.
9...Nc6
We have come far enough in the game to note that the current game is the only one in The Database to contain this move. Has Black succeeded in leading White astray?
Perhaps not.
There is a game with a similar, alternative move for Black in The Database: 9... Ne7 10. Nc3 Rf8 11. Nb5 c6 12. Nc7 Rb8 13. f4 Nf3+ 14. Rxf3 Qxd4 15. Bxd4 Kg8 16.Bxa7 Black resigned, Wall,B - Foman, Chess.com, 2010.
10.Qd3 Qxb2
Black's Queen gobbles a poisoned pawn.
11.Nc3 Nb4
This attack on White's Queen will actually doom the Knight and put Black's Queen at risk. Better was the developing 11...Nf6.
