King's Gambit Game

This isn't the craziest king's gambit game out there, and I had trouble finding one, but it's still pretty instructive and contains an elegant combination. At one point black ended up blundeing, and after white played the combination got a winning advantage. It was admirable how well white played when he was winning, looking many moves ahead to make his position even better and give his much stronger opponent no chance of fighting back.  Most amatuers would make more lazy moves and make their position worse and worse aganst a better player, or worse blunder, but not here. This taught me some things about closing out a game.

They would, but I don't think many people are looking at the games. They would be pretty helpful I think.

I am, I can assure you of that! I never really accept the gambit as Black. I always opt for the Petrov Defense (2...Nf6).

Against 2 f4?

Yeah, it's a viable defense. Think of the trap in the Damiano Defense; you can threaten stuff like that as Black.
