Bc4 is personally a better move, at least that is what I play and I do well with it.

cladz

Elubas
What I don't get is how this opening got named after tartakower. Did he really use this?

King's Gambit is one of my personal favourites, but you HAVE to know its lines otherwise you will probably lose.

2. Bc4 is a good move.

Although Bc4 isn't a terrible idea, having said that....
I don't like playing King's Gambit to start with. Why move the bishop so early? You might want it somewhere else (preferably aiming at the f7 square), right?
kumarswamy
its not the best
I'm no KG player but I play the Vienna Gambit, and I can see absolutely no point in having the bishop on e2.

Qh4+ Kf1 Nc6
Syntax_error
Puts the bishop on a far weaker square...

If Qh4+ white is forced to move Kf1, right?
Thats not cool.

Interesting that with Be2,White and Black have exactly the same win percentage.
