Default what do these terms mean?

Stop and Go - in relation to betting. I think it means see the flop and check/fold if miss?

LAA?

LAG?

Refers to a move in NL....you check/limp then call a later raise. You then bet out immediately on the next round into the original better/raiser.

Lag = loose aggressive

Can't speak for NL, but in limit it usually means someone who bets and calls a raise, then bets again on the next street.

Loose-aggressive preflop and aggressive postflop.

There was a discussion on Stop 'n go recently.
As I recall I think the no limit players said it was a move that you mostly did short stacked.

Example: You raise preflop, someone reraises you. Folding now would leave you with almost no chips, and the other guy would call if you moved all in.
This is when you use the stop n go. You just call his raise. And then move all-in on the flop no matter what comes.
This gives you a chance to win if your opponent fold, believing you hit the flop.

At least, thats what i think they said.

Stop 'n go is a move where someone bets out strong on a later round when they could've reraised earlier.

Say the flop is A Q 7 rainbow and a pot of $2.

Villain bets $2, you reraise to $8, he smooth calls your $6 more.

Turn is a 4 completing the rainbow. He bets out $20.

Unless Villain was holding something like A4, there's no way the turn card could've helped him.
