Knee on Belly -> Back -> Double Attack Choke/Armbar

I have my right knee on B's belly. B turns into me and pushes my knee. I sprawl out and collapse my chest on top of B's shoulder. My left arm shoots towards B's hip while my right hand holds B's knee pushing arm and I rotate my body over B's head, switching my base. I should end up with B on their side with their back facing towards me. Mainintaining pressure on B's shoulder so they can't turn into me, I use my right hand to come around the outside of B's head and grab their wrist. My left hand then comes underneath B's arm and grabs my own wrist to form a kimura grip. I then tuck my right shin into B's back while I post out my left leg. I pull B over my shin and use my left leg to get the hook. From here, my right hand goes to B's collar while my left hand comes around B's bicep and grabs my own collar. I can then attack with the bow and arrow or push B's head away and go for the armbar from the back.

Knee on Belly Switch -> S Mount Armbar

I have my right knee on B's belly. If B shrimps out and pushes my knee away, my left leg swings around to the other side of B's hip. My right leg then comes all the way around B's head and posts out. If B tries to turn into me again, I slide my knee across their belly and come into a high s mount. From there I attack the arm and finish with the armbar.

Kesa gatame -> armbar

I have kesa-gatame on B's right side. I have B's right arm tucked into my left armpit and my right arm underhooks B's other arm, securing it by gripping my own collar.

Step 1: I bring my left leg over B's head and bring their right arm diagonally across the body.

Step 2: I sink down and use my armpit + hips to initiate the armlock

Step 3: If B escapes their arm, I spin and armbar the arm I have trapped with my own collar

Armbar from kesa.
-From the same position above I make sure that B's underhooked arm is trapped on top of my shoulder and secured by the collar grip and my head. If B tries to bring the arm across my face to push me away, I catch it with my left hand and lock up an americana. Otherwise..
Step 1: I bring the underhooked arm down towards B's waist.

Step 2: My forearm/elbow comes across B's stomach and I put all my pressure through my forearm.

Step 3: I release my collar grip and my hand slides to behind B's elbow

Step 4: While mainting the pressure with my head and forearm, my left hand comes up behind the elbow on top of my right hand

Step 5: I can go knee on belly and then post out my left leg to finish the armlock

Loop Choke/Sweep off half guard pass + Loop choke from sprawl

I start with a knee shield half guard. I use my left hand to get a cross collar grip on B. My right hand blocks B's crossfacing arm with a sleeve grip. While B passes my guard, I use the collar grip to come around the head as if going for a guillotine. Keeping the sleeve grip, I hip escape once and then roll underneath B, pushing the sleeve across their body. Once I roll B onto their back, I let go of the sleeve and grab the pants. I then bridge back onto B to finish the choke. If I can't finish the choke I come up while maintaining the collar grip.



After the initial guard pass, I can come up onto my knees instead. With my left hand with the cross collar, I put all my pressure on the back of B's head with my chest. I then circle around to the right putting my right hand behind B's thigh and my head underneath their stomach, in front of their thigh. From there I keep circling to try and finish the choke. If they don't tap I keep circling until they are off balance. From there I switch my hips so that my belly is up and then spin bringing my free hand around their arm to the back of their head. My belly should be beneath B's head with one hand in the collar and the other behind their head.

Instead of circling and switching my hips in the last move, I can use the leg grip and the collar grip and bulldoze into the side of B. Once they start to crumble I flip over their body and spin into the choke.

Butterfly Guard Situp -> Choke -> Sweep

B is in my butterfly guard with me flattened out on my back. I extend my legs and sit up. My left arm comes around B's right arm and I for a one arm tie up grabbing his collar. My right arm posts on the ground and I do a technical stand up so my right leg comes up. I keep my left leg with a butterfly hook and bring my right hand into the collar palm up. I then bring my right leg into B's leg so that the top of my foot is on the outside of his leg with my left leg hook on the inside. If B tries to block the choke and posts out their left leg, I use my hook to elevate and sweep them to my right side.
