Stop and go

This is a play which is not used too much. It is only useful in tournaments when you have a short stack and you have a small stack. “Stop and Go” is calling a raise for a big percentage of your stack and donk bet all in on pretty much any Flop. This is not applied frequently because most of the time it is better to push all in preflop.
