Ackerman Gambit

Accusing someone with a winning argument of racism as a distraction.

Named for journalist Spencer Ackerman, who promoted the strategy on the email listserv "JournoList" as a means for journalists to avoid having to cover the Jeremiah Wright controversy.

This reckless spending during a time of record deficits is irresponsible.
Racist!
An Ackerman Gambit? I've read the JournoList, too, y'know ...

beebelbrox's gambit

Any drink taken, while drunk, in an attempt to sober up. Different from hair of the dog in that a gambit is always consumned while still drunk, usually in a fit of drunk logic. Named after the character Zaphoid Beebelbrox of "The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy."

Guy 1: Maybe I should have another drink. Send one down to see what the other five are doing

Guy 2: Bad idea man, Beebelbrox's gambit never works.

Emo Gambit

A practice often used by teenagers and the emotionally unstable/immature where the threat of suicide is employed to either prevent a break-up, or begin a relationship, with someone who is clearly uninterested.

I really need to break things off with him, since he's getting clingy, but I don't want him throwing an Emo Gambit.

stalwart gambit

A maneuver in which one friend makes a sacrifice and talks to the ugly girls while the other friend leaves the group, creates an exit strategy, and finally rescues the first friend.

Dude, we pulled off a nice stalwart gambit last night. When you ran ahead, got pizza for both of us, and we left those girls waiting in line, I was amazed.
