@bjjaz So honestly if I competed IBJJF again a brown or if I ever do at black belt then I'm going to hesitate to do any type of 411/saddle/honeyhole stuff. Even though it seems like it should be legal there is just way too much confusion online among bjj nerds and if as a community we are so unsure of it then I'm not going to trust an IBJJF ref to get the call right and/or not want an excuse to DQ someone from another team, someone they don't like, or even if they're just exhausted and want to keep the bracket moving.
I think playing the leg game in IBJJF is maybe a bad idea in general. Even in 50/50 or 1LX you can do a straight footlock and turn the wrong way and get DQ'd.
Just seems like playing with fire to me.
