The clock choke is one of the classic BJJ submissions. The first time I saw it was when Wallid Ismael choked Royce Gracie unconscious with it in their epic match when Royce, the consummate warrior, refused to tap. It’s a fantastic choke that you should definitely add to your arsenal if you’re training with the gi sometimes.
