Can you give some examples of hands that play better short stack ?

When effective stacks are small then hands that can make top pair with a good kicker, hands like AJo & KQo, play well. The idea is to raise big pre-flop, hit top pair and then go all-in on the flop.

When stacks are deep then hands that can take advantage of implied odds, hands like 55 & 87s, play well. The idea here is to see a cheap flop, occationally flop a monster and bust another deep stack.

One set of hands works best when you can take advantage of implied odds, the other works best when you can deny implied odds.
