hi,

tried a stop and go. what kind of hand do you prefer?

SB (t5480)
Hero (BB) (t2120)
UTG (t2400)
MP (t2710)
Button (t790)

Hero's M: 3.53

Preflop: Hero is BB with A, 5
UTG calls t400, 3 folds, Hero checks

Flop: (t1000) 7, 4, J (2 players)

What's a stop and go? o_O

And of course I would tell you to check fold flop but I think you have some kind of strategy

Stop n Go is when you call out of position with a hand you are going to donk push on the flop regardless of the cards that come out.


its not really a stop n go because its a limped pot.

here with 4BBs behind we still have fold-equity when we push first in. so i see no reason to commit yourself to this play. while the board is quite dry if villain knows anything about poker he should understand that you can never have a strong hand here. so its quite a transparent play.

what abt pushing over his limp (if, we've got any stats on his limp/folding often)? or it doesn't make sense here because with the ultra shorty on the table we are kinda on the bubble?
another question - if we know that he's at least a half decent player can we simply assume thats a trap 99% cases?

pushing pre is the best option, but trash Axo hands arent the best hands to do that with. fish often limp Axo or small pairs and dont fold and we are crushed by most of those.

we need to be sure of fold-equity, and have a little bit stronger hand to shove pre. something like A7/A8o.

if its a regular, i would assume a trap unless i have reads showing otherwise.
