The term "stop and go" refers to a tournament strategy situation in which at least one shortstack is involved and is always executed out of position. You stop preflop by calling and shove on flop ("go").
Examples:
1. You are comfortable and in the BB with 44. Now a pretty short stack (whose range is pretty wide since he is desperately in the needs for blinds) attacks your blind and you figure he will call a push preflop but might not let his stack ride on a missed flop. So you call preflop and push him all-in on flop.
2. You are short and only have time for a few more orbits and your blind gets raised. You think the raiser has a better hand but might fold it on flop if missed. You call, shove on any flop and sometimes take it down.
This only works when you have fold equity left. Don't do it vs someone with only 5M or less. And not against maniacs that will call anyways no matter which cards come on flop!

Online poker hasn't really been around for too long, maybe a decade or so, but as soon as it was, clever programmers were thinking about designing online poker software tools that could not only produce a winning edge for a player, but stretch the meaning of fair play.
Well the best poker software tools have survived an era of audacious claims made by many fly-by-nighters. Poker software like Poker Tracker, Holdem Manager and Tournament Indicator have achieved real staying and power market share largely due to following the rules set out by online poker rooms such as Full Tilt Poker and Poker Stars, yet they have displayed evidence of creating clear advantages for those who use the tracking software.
