Some of the following come from the book "Chess Catechism (sp?)":

Guioco Piano:  Playable but not as good as a Steinway.

Dodd Gambit:  To be used when it is realized that the opponent will probably
    win the game that you are in.  To play it you firmly grasp the chess
    board and with one upward motion fling the board and all remaining pieces
    into the air while shouting out "Dodd Gambit!!!!".
