are we not "high level" enough mr. fancy pants?
just kidding...
all it means is that white's king is going to have a landing square on f1 after black brings his king in to cause havoc...
nothing special...
i dont like it bcuz i can never manage to get the Rook out without moving the king, wasting a tempo...

It's new and Russ and Chris haven't added it to the page yet.

This is the King's Bishop Gambit, the two top practitioners on RHP are Northern Lad (Though he uses 3.Nf3 more I think) and Bedlam.

I've used it too as a KG player - I prefer the 3.Nf3 lines -

Game 2943487

What put you off the Bc4? I thought (at one time) you preferred it to Nf3 and you intended crushing me with it in the KG tournament.
