I had "one of those days" today rolling

i love those eureka moments and i look forward to the next one. good job!
 
Rolled again today and did well with the posture. One white belt I rolled with got visably frustrated because he was trying to pull me down into the guard and I just kept a solid base and was hand fighting him successfully. It was almost like he was pissed that I wouldn't let him grab my wrists. Like another poster said, he just got tired and afterwards got sloppy. Which led to a submission.
 
It's a two-edged sword really. You can posture up and spin for a kneebar, but if you just posture up they can attack your non-trapped leg with a toe-hold, for example. Actually, even if you spin for the kneebar, they can still toe-hold you if you lead with the knee instead of the foot. I'm just waffling now. I dunno.

BJJ is really alot like that imo, if you do or go for something there's something that will be left vulnerable.
