Antes are 25. No reads. I'm pretty sure this is +cEV, but have no idea if its +$EV.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (5 handed) internettexasholdem.com

SB (t1080)
Hero (t3850)
UTG (t5410)
MP (t6910)
Button (t9750)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
1 fold, MP calls t200, Button raises to t600, 1 fold, Hero raises to t3825

No reads? I just fold. The raise looks strong enough and he's got a lotta chips to make a call with.

What't the general opinion in STT on when to use the stop & go? In MTT, it used to be something like "if you don't have fold equity preflop and you've got a decent hand that doesn't want to see all 5 cards (like 66 or 77)". Now most people in MTT seem to think more like "Stop & gos basically suck in most situations and just help your opponents play most hands correctly post-flop if you use them with low-to-mid pairs. If anything use them when you'd push anyway, but will have more fold equity with the S&G." But I see people here in STT recommend them MUCH more often, so I assume there's a very different opinion held here.

Does this not let MP see the flop on the cheap thus making it 2 people to go through post Flop ?

I fold here without reads. You would need Mp to be limping a wide range and button not calling loose to the re-raise.
