Yeah this is one of the view spots I'll consider a stop and go.

Could you elaborate on what it is about this spot that makes you consider a stop and go (or what your general criteria is for a stop and go)?

I never think to use the stop and go and think I'm missing out on a lot of opportunities.

Basically it's when you think you have no fold equity preflop but you think you can get the Villian to make a bad fold post flop. For example, a player raised to 3xBB at the final three tables of the 2005 WSOP. A shortstacked Greg Raymer called with A9, rather than pushing preflop. The flop came KK7, and it turned out that the Villian had 55. A lot of players muck the 55 there (and it's possible he would have on a KQ7 board). But the 55 definitely should call the preflop allin, no question.
