I want to share with you a thing I noticed. Before you take shots at me - I don't want to side with anybody, my interest is the truth. In the youtube vidsm, Billy Robinson shows the front facelock or 'grovvit'. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xq0OrVgEFs4He teaches to do the hold with the other hand grabbing at the opponent's triceps. Ok. Yet when watching Tony Cecchine's 'Snap no tap' series, I found out that in the part on Fig4 choke, Tony explicitly says that grabbing at the triceps is a poor form; not just for the choke, but that it is a bad technique, period. He even shows why it is so, by demonstrating several escapes. Now what? ;-)

Have you drilled it? What made sense to you? What about rolling? Was anyone able to escape? Which version was easier to get? Ultimately the mat is your coach.

Robinson grabs the tricep out of preference. If he can't get the Front Facelock, he's able to do a short arm drag and either grab a leg of take the back.
Cecchine grabs and pushes on the shoulder for the choke, but doesn't have the short arm drag option.
Both are correct as both are slightly different attacks. With the Front Facelock and grabbing the tricep, you stop them turning their head out of it, with the choke and the shoulder you make everything tighter for the constriction.
