Make sure that your forearms are perpindicular to the floor. This should keep you from using your triceps as much.

also make sure your elbows are pointed out your sides, rather than in front of you

Exactly, think about it, when you do close grip bench presses you're primarily working your tris because your elbows are close to your body. Make sure to keep your grip wide and your elbows out and you'll hit your chest hard.
