That's some good advice. There's a NAGA event coming up May 24 in Chicago that might do you some good. I'd say only compete if you've been doing BJJ for a few months or more though because even the novice guys up there are pretty decent. The plus side to grappling tournaments is you don't have to worry about getting your face fucked up or anything but you still get some experience competing in front of a crowd.
