It was -4 until your opponent blundered mate. Any king move other than Kc4 was completely winning for them

With completely accurate play, all that happens is that you lose your bishop...

This is a gambit that relies on the opponent's mistakes, with accurate play though, this can be refuted...

The Game review is as far from "completely accurate play" as you can get. The analysis it uses is extremely shallow and bad. Plus the conclusions and advice are usually complete nonsense.

Also, the reason chess.com no longer recognizes the Jerome gambit is because some guy decided that it won't. No engine had any part in that.

Just because you can checkmate one clown who doesn't understand defense worth a lick and it was probably a blitz game as well proves nothing about the validity of that trash opening.

I'm sure if you look hard enough, you can find a game that White won after 1.d4 e6 2.Bg5?? Qxg5. Does that suddenly validate 2.Bg5?? UHM....NO!!!!!
