Re: Explanation of Stop-and-go?
[ QUOTE ]
TAGs can stop and go vs someone to entice them to bet more money, while losing the minimum when they are behind.
Eg:
Flop of A83
We hold A2, and are heads up OOP vs a tag.
What the best line? Bet? Nope. Check-call, check-call, then bet the river. Makes the most money vs someone who doesnt have the ace, and loses the minimum when they have a better kicker.

Uh, that's not a stop-n-go, that's WA/WB. Right?
(Edit: Oh, wait, I see, you're presenting the defense to the stop-n-go, right?)
Stop-n-go is to conceal the strength of your hand to keep the villan in, I thought. EG: hero holds A8 OOP on a rainbow flop of A82, giving him top two. We bet, Villan in MP raises, what's best? Call, then lead out again so Villan can't put you on a hand.
