I learnt about stop n go like a long time ago. but I really don't do it that often to know when are perfect times to do it. should you be doing this with any two cards? What is criteria for doing this play?

 

[WiZZiM]

do it anytime you think it will get you more folding equity overall. Here i think is a perfect time to "check" and go ..

Preflop you have little to no fold equity, but on the flops where your opponant misses you have a ton of it. Fish love to see flops, so jamming pre kind of fits into their game plan well, but checking and jamming flops takes advantage of the 60%+ times they miss the flop.

You can also do stuff like min-raise/shove flops, it just depends on your stack size.. Keep in mind fish don't know what good play is, so you can get away with these plays as they only really look at their hand and the flop.

In this BI many nit players , this easy shove with 5K , we have only 2M and pot already 50% our stack, shove here very profitable then check/push-flop...

I think it was a good move in this spot.

he appears to be a loose passive calling station, and so if you jam pre, he is probably calling with his entire limping range.

On the flop you're just basically betting that he doesn't have an Ace or a big club. Pretty good bet, and you're running out of other options.
