Drysdale has some great details in this video. It says "Guillotine-Proof" but addresses all chokes at the same time pretty much.

That video is nice, for the half guard and will help me fix that from half guard. But does any one got any thing else when your playing a half butterfly guard?

Underhooking like this should transfer over to butterfly half. Also framing off the non underhooked arm at the bicep should stuff the darce if this underhook somehow makes your leg lock setups awkward.
Honestly not underhooking against a good darce choker can make it worse for you. The choke works better if you aren't trying to coke through their underhook. As the choker I want to ideally clear your underhook first.
Imagine there is an imaginary bubble between your shoulder and your neck okay? The darce choker is trying to pop that bubble with your shoulder. So if you underhook and they are going for the darce then keep that space between your shoulder and neck open the best you can.
When a darce choke fails it is almost never on the side of the neck but rather the trapped shoulder side of things. Failed darces are mostly because the choker isn't able to properly drop the shoulder into the side of the neck which is what causes the clean choke.
So trying to keep that space open no matter what angle they're trying to finish the choke (the darce is super versatile and can be finished at most angles on top or on bottom) will help you.
Never let your opponent grip his hands together by the posture of your neck. This takes a while to master. If he grips his hands together he can jnt you. If it’s deep you might need to go to Malibu beams
