Recognize the position · Protect the arms · Scoop the knee · Bridge and turn · Take the back or pass
Did they step past your hip? Good — that's the Thread Escape. The first job is to not panic. Protect the choke arm on top, protect the armlock arm on the bottom, and settle. You have time. Calm creates the opportunity.
When you're ready: scoop under that high knee first, hike it toward your shoulder. Bottom hand finds the ankle. Both set — bridge and turn. Try to pop out behind them. Did you make it? You're in turtle top. Did they roll? You're on top passing. Did they sit back hard? Their leg is light — put them in half guard and keep working.
Every reaction they make gives you something. Stay calm, read what they give you, and take it.
