Help-mate
I was wandering through The Database when I ran across the following amusing game. It finishes like a "help-mate", which is probably not too surprising for a Jerome Gambit played at a lightning time control...
JKELSEY - raol
lightning, FICS, 2001
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+
4...Kf8
The Jerome Gambit Declined, a rare choice.
5.Bb3 Ke7
An extravagance that Black can ill afford; but the Jerome can leave a defender dizzy.
