what, you mean like... playing poker? yeah it's a b*tch.

that being said - if he does have the underfull... if you were to use a stop and go he would very easily be able to smooth call the turn and get your stack in the middle given the ginormous size of the pot. so it seems like you have to decide whether it's worth it or not to continue, but i think this spot is just tough given the stacks, even a stop and go would likely commit you.

i really like coltrane's point - this is a great flop to mix it up by not firing out pot... i personally might consider a stop and go from the get go by checking the flop then leading the turn hard. especially since there's so little they actually could have hit, so stop and go is a nice way to control pot size if they have a monster, to get a bet on the flop from weaker pocket pairs, and to let them bluff the flop when they've completely missed.
