If they like a move that kasparov never won ot drew against it then maybe 1.h4
is a better choice.

I did not do a search for games when kasparov played against 1.h4 so I cannot be
sure if kasparov really never won or drew against that move(this is the case if
my guess for the number of games that he played against h4 is correct guess).
