3644 and Masters Open Mat

Taps: 7. Total: 3644.

These 6 min rolls go fast.

Struggled with:

Delmonica Reverse Half Sweep ... lots of people going to Knee Slide on my Half Guard and I was able to make Brown go Back Step but got stuck there and could not bridge to sweep. think he was controlling my far leg.

Some success: Giggler Sweep but I really need to keep their knee down and not let them come up and do Knee Slide.

KBrown's Secret grip in Closed Guard.

BB Chris' Side Defensive Posture really worked well. Stopped Kob and Breadcutter Choke, but allowed them to get Kimura grips on me.

BB Leonidas showed me his Knee Slide Knuckle Choke, which he also does in Closed Guard Bottom. Key Detail: Not too deep, but not as loose as Loop Choke. Pinkie goes right against center of his throat, push and turn pinkie up as I get other hand grip.

Keep at:
1. Matt's Flower Sweep.
2. Turtle Attack 1: Juji
3. Turtle Attack 2: Reverse Omo.

Blue got me in Arm Triangle after he tried for longest time to get me from Kesa and Chest Pressure. Annoyed that I forgot the Frame and Shrimp ESC. Then he says he's a Wrestler. Don't Care. Keep your charity pity to yourself. Don't say you're stronger, heavier, D1 Wrestler, higher belt. Don't Care. I don't need cheering up. I don't need to be handed excuses.

I got caught because, as Kurt O says, "I f#%E* up." I didn't do something or I did something wrong. I need to figure it out and fix it. Got nothing to do with your belt, age, weight, experience, or strength. I need to take ownership of my failures, of my training.
