This is probably faulty thinking, and is exposing you to more races than is necessary. AK (or AQ KQ) is a virtual flip against JJ with 5 cards to come... but with 3 cards, JJ is a solid favorite.

By using a Stop N Go you are winning pots you may have otherwise lost. Sure if someone opens with A8 lets say, you are letting them hit their Ace by just calling... but often times they will call your push anyway.

The key to a stop n go is that you must have a stack to the point where IF you reraise, it's going to be all in, YET you also have enough to make an opponent fold on the flop... however often this amount which is enough to force an opponent who missed the flop to fold, is NOT enough to force the opponent who opened to fold.
