UPDATED WITH VIDS.....

Hey Heyy.....Just got back and I won 3rd place in my novice lightweight NAGA division....

It was a great experience and overall it went awesome!! very fun....

I actually weighed in at 153lbs...lol....a little under the 159 I thought I would be....but I didnt let it bug me and went for it....

I had 3 matches in all....
won the first in about 30 seconds w/ a triangle choke.... ..which greatly boosted my confidence....

2nd match...lost by 4 points!!!....Im still upset by it because there was ZERO sub attempts against me....ZERO.....I dragged to his back...set up turtle choke...which was deep...but this guy was much thicker than me (def had to cut to get to 160)...from there had a triangle near set up...tranitioned to an armbar....TIGHT......due to his weight I couldnt roll him...I seriously had him in it for a minute and a half er so..........the rest was basically him smoothering me in half gaurd and him getting his points by escaping to side for about 5 seconds....lol...can you tell Im still angry....

Anyway...3rd match for 3rd place....won by RNC ...beautiful!!...in about 30 seconds er so.....he was standing, I kicked out his feet and armdragged to his back at the same time for the Rear Naked Choke...(thank you Marcelo)....

Overall....loved it.....thanks for the help you guys!!!...

and I did get videos!!.....except 2nd match crapped out after a little bit....

Armdrags looked good. You had those down pretty good.

Triangles and guard control looked solid. Definitely looked a lot tighter than the last videos you posted, though some of that may have been the pace you were going at.

Looked good. Stayed aggressive and constantly looking for submissions. You did a good job buddy, congratulations. Glad to hear we're helping.

Keep it up, and keep us posted for sure.
