Default Stop and Go Criteria

From an article of Jeremiah Smith:

[ QUOTE ]

1. You are in one of the blinds

2. You will be heads-up

3. You have at least 8 times the big blind preflop

4. Your opponent has a similar stack size or a little more.


[/ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ]

If you find yourself with a hand like 4-4 or A-10 and your blind is raised, your first impulse is to usually just push all-in before the flop. Sometimes a better option is to just call from the blind with the intention of pushing all-in no matter what the flop brings. Why? Because you give yourself an extra chance of making your opponent fold, often with the better hand.

What do you think of this advice? What criteria do you use for stop and go?
