If they try to roll, you need to anticipate it and adjust your grip and body position. Try to keep their hips controlled with your legs and use your arms to guide their movement, preventing them from completing the roll and setting up your triangle.
If you can't get your shin across, you might need to adjust your body positioning. Try to shrimp out slightly to create more space, or use your free leg to push their hip away, allowing you to re-angle and secure the triangle choke.
To prevent arm escape, ensure your shoulder is firmly pressed into their armpit, creating a strong base. As you transition, keep your hips elevated and drive your knee into their hip to maintain control of their posture and prevent them from posturing up to free their arm.
Against a larger opponent, focus on cutting your angle by walking your hips in a circular motion towards their head, creating a tighter seal. Pull their head down with your armpit and simultaneously extend your legs to squeeze their carotid arteries, using your shin on the back of their neck for maximum pressure.
As you transition, actively shrimp your hips towards their head and slightly away from their hips, creating the necessary angle for the triangle. This hip movement allows you to bring your leg over their shoulder and lock your triangle, while keeping their weight controlled and preventing them from turning in.
