No, your description is actually very good. But the video shows the former. If you pause at 1:10, it's just that his choking arm is so deep that it lines up with the trapped shoulder. Think about where the choke starts from. This choke started from the shoulder and ended at the neck, which as you said, is the criterion for the brabo/darce. If you pause again at 1:48, the grip is on the neck, with shoulder to shoulder contact. This darce setup was used at ADCC 07 by Flavio Almeida. Its on youtube

I have heard this called the reverse anaconda in addition to the d'arce. Anyway you name it its a great technique, and if he doesn't turn into it you can use the hand on his hip to go north south, clasp your hands, and sprawl out for the north south choke.

@deadballo This baseball slide finish for the darce is used a lot by Jeff Glover and Bill Cooper. The main places to finish the darce are from top-side, top-half, this slide finish shown here, and from the mount. Since the anaconda is finished typically on the side by clocking into the opponent, a lot of people confuse the slide darce finish with the typical anaconda finish. For example, lots of people mistakenly thought Rafa Mendes' anaconda chokes at ADCC 09 were darce chokes.

OK, I kinda feel stupid for bringing this up, but the choke in the video looks like an anaconda choke.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but is not the D'Arce (aka Brabo) choke when the choking arm traps the opponent's arm and the clasp is next to the neck while the anaconda is when the choking arm is on the neck and the clasp on the opponent's trapped arm? This video shows the latter.

@WhtMike2006 thanks for the clear up... @psykojojo either way, still a good vid...

@JoeAvatar1 A Darce and Anaconda both have the arm in the choke. But this video is NOT an Anaconda choke, it is a Darce choke. The choking arm goes from the shoulder out past the neck. In the Anaconda it goes from the neck out past the shoulder. The two chokes are cousins, and somebody labeled this video wrong. There's nothing wrong with the technique, but to call it an Anaconda choke would be wrong.

Would that be considered a D'arce variation being that you have the arm in as well? That was almost exactly how I landed in a judo match to get a choke...

I like the way you get them chokes, my favorite choke is the D'arce, I really like your variations...

great videos, i'm always looking for more ways to surprise people. i was wondering if there was any counter to the move where the guy from the bottom of side-control throws his leg over your head and locks in a reverse triangle...

i know that you can avoid it by keeping your head low, but i was wondering if you knew any sort of kneebar counter or something like that so that i can teach my rolling partner never to try that move on me again
