A submission, finally

I'm getting tired of simply surviving rounds with other blue belts and, more importantly, of being in that mentality of surviving and defending. Tonight, after who knows who long, I finally sub'd a blue. I have no clue what the choke is called, but here is a rough description:

1) From north-south, slide your R hand underneath the OP's armpit and grab the back of their collar

2) use your L hand and grip the inside of the OP's lapel on the far side

3) make sure that the L forearm is on top of the OP's throat, then open your elbows so that your L forearm is pushing the OP's face away and the R forearm is pulling the OP's lapel from underneath their armpit

I learned this at Bay Jiu Jitsu from Stephan Goyne in San Francisco.
