Loks to me like vapor lock problem,meaning that the fuel inside your carb is"boiling".The problem is more apparent when after working,you fill up the tank and when you want to restart it,you need a lot of choke and pull to bring back fresh gas back in the carb.To avoid this problem,try to run your saw a bit richer and avoid emptying ou the tank completely and let the saw cool down while running idle for few minutes before filling.
