In his comment to "London Calling... Seven Months of Blog" and "The Next Best Thing..." Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+) Gemeinde member Pete Banks ("blackburne") called readers attention to the opening 1.h4.Would giving a couple of games by some top past masters give a different picture of the possibilities of that opening?
