If anyone votes stop n go, they should be slapped sharply.

Why isn't call an option?

Im so tired of the stop+go obsession. About 80% of posts asking whether they should use it, make no sense. The stop+go assumes you will push on EVERY SINGLE FLOP. Does it even make the least bit of sense to call for 100 and then push 1500 chips in the center against two opponents no matter what comes on the flop?

Sorry I'm taking it out on you, but it's just never ending. These terms like stop+go need to be defined very clearly somewhere on the website because it really feels like no one even knows what they mean.

Here, I'll clear up the confusion once and for all with an illustrative sentence:

I <font color="red"> stop n goed</font> on your mom last night.

Stop-n-stop-n-go

Call and push the turn, no matter what happens.

Are you being serious? Because if you are, this is the stupidest idea ever. He has t1700 stack!! You suggest raising 3/4 of his stack and check/folding to an overcard?!
