The King's Gambit: Triangle Choke? Pass the Guard! In this seminar I will show how you not only can survive the Triangle Choke, but actually enter on purpose and pass your opponent's guard from there.
This class was filmed at the BJJ Globetrotters Zen Camp 2020.
Sacrificing a piece in chess is known as a gambit. The idea of a gambit is to sacrifice a piece in order to gain structural or positional advantage over your opponent.
I always had a good triangle choke defense.
One of my favorite tactics in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is baiting the triangle, wear my opponent down and then slowly pass.
Even if the pass itself would fail, I can still wear my opponent down and use it as a triangle choke escape. This triangle choke pass is mechanically the same as the basic double under pass.
When my opponent goes for the triangle, he gains POSITIONAL advantage. But I gain STRUCTURAL advantage.
My opponent's spine and neck are completely bend (broken posture) while my spine and neck stay straight (strong posture).
It's very hard (and unhealthy for your spine) to generate strenght with a broken posture (compare it to squatting with a bend spine).
Although my opponent has the triangle, he is unable to generate strenght cause of his posture and thus unable to finish the choke.
Meanwhile, I keep my weight forward and structure intact. I force my opponent to carry my weight, slowly grinding, breaking his structure even more. The more he resists, the more tired he gets. Until he has to concede the pass or turtle and expose his back (the truck).
