There is also a choke pull-of on most carbs that will pull the choke plate open just a little more on acceleration when the carb is still in the choke mode. The reason this is done is to allow a little extra airflow during acceleration which in turn keeps the fuel flowing which keeps the engine going. The pull-off is usually operated by manifold vaccum. You might check that out.
