The brutal Jerome Gambit (And how to destroy it!)

The Jerome Gambit is absolutely mad and completely unsound, but… It creates such confusion in black’s position and it can end games in a matter of moves. Black goes a ton of material up, but is at risk of getting mated straight away.

The Jerome Gambit is probably the most aggressive and most interesting gambit I’ve ever seen. White sacs two pieces for complete madness on the board. It could end badly for black if he doesn’t know how to punish it properly, so I’ve tried to provide a simple recipe on how to refute it every time!
