I'd stop and go.

Agreed. Stop and go > push in this situation. Unless he's a very poor player, and on a complete steal with garbage (two things which may or may not be mutually exclusive), he's not folding this preflop. Unless he's got an overpair, or is a tough player who will call your flop push with unpaired overs, a stop and go turns a likely coinflip into a 2 to 1 in your favor. Even more if he'll fold less than top pair. Perfect time to use this move.

Regards,
Steve

Stop+Go is better than allin in this spot. Folding is too weak, you have no guarantee whatsoever that you can fold your way into the money, and your hand is too strong.

What's a stop n go? I've heard of a wash n go, but not this.

I would push (and surely you are hoping for a weak Ace, rather than 2 overs).
