Up the hill, pause to turn and Where' the frikin' GO button ??

Good subject OP.
Have had my car 2 years now and never delved into the brains, operation or intent of a DSG. I've got a lot of reading to do to see where this fits in so here's my spoiler-
Coming up a hill to a light, I can't see oncoming traffic to make my left turn until the hill crests flat. At that point, the pedal is let up so DSG must hesitate as I read from the first post here. Whine this happened a few months ago, I didn't have any working understanding of the 'modern' transmission and it felt like the car dies or stalled. It was a bit panicky for me because I was ready jolt out there having time to beat oncoming traffic when W. T. F. ??
Serious time lapse and senior moment for me thinking I had F'N stroke or something. I've driven manuals all my life and take care and handling of a car pretty seriously. If I've read this right, I need to learn the DSG game or put the thing in Sport maybe ?
Anyways, I'll read on through in chronology seeing if my situation shows up by others and I DO welcome any response or input along the way. T Y
