The first move is the move that Gomi was tapped out with. It was like a shoulder triangle with the arms. Gomi's arm was across his face and the guy had him choked from side control. Gomi got out of it the first time but the second time he couldn't. I've seen the move in Judo and grappling but maybe it was a slightly different variation. I don't understand how it was so effective. I've tried it in matwork before but couldn't tap my opponent out. What is the name of this choke and what's the key to it working?
The second move is an arm bar from kesa-gatame (side position head and arm). I've been tapped out on this before. I think maybe I wait to long before I recognize it but is there a defense against it once the arm is wrapped up by the leg? I've been able to fight it off for a while when locked up in the leg bu eventually they get it. I suppose the key is to recognize it right before the arm is taken?
