Arm Triangle vs Half Guard, Arm Triangle from Mount
Braulio shows key details for finishing an Arm-Triangle Choke: Align your chin on top of your opponent's near-side shoulder and focus your compression inward; clocking around their shoulder with your legs running laterally toward a perpendicular finish isn't your only option. You can bait your opponent into a dilemma by dangling your near-side foot above their legs and wait for them to bite down onto your ankle for Quarter-Guard. While they are busy allocating attention for a recovery into a Half-Guard, the effects from throttling their neck will already be underway. As long as you don't allow for them to recover back a meaningful variation of Half-Guard that can take pressure away from your squeeze, you can even find a parallel finish from Full-Mount.
