The Knucklehead Gambit

After my two-part article on the Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+) in the United States Chess Federation's Chess Life for Kids (see " 'The Worst Chess Opening Ever' Warning or Menace??") I am writing an article titled "The Knucklehead Gambit", based on what I have learned about the Busch-Gass Gambit, 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Bc5.

I was pleased to learn that last winter Chess.com held a Busch-Gass Gambit Thematic chess tournament (winner: Karpikicks) and even more pleased that links were given to three posts on this blog that referred to the gambit: "Worth A Second Look... (Part 1)" "(Part 2)" and "(Part 3)". 

To fill out the list, here are several others: "Danke!", "Busch-Gass Gambit" and "Busch-Gass Pass".
