Last night, I decided to try a few gambits to end my chess for that evening.  I played four blitz games with a guy; the time controls were 10 minutes with +2 seconds per move.  I played two King's Gambits and two Calabrese Countergambits.  I won all four.

Ah...yeah, I took quite a bit of time calculating some lines in the games.  By that time, I only had a couple minutes left on my clock.

I'm not sure, GUILLOTINE.  I checked chess.com's opening explorer, but there's nothing there.  I suggest looking at thechesswebsite.com.  They seem to have at least some type of video on just about every chess opening.
