I think short stacking works better at a full table, because then you feel less pressure from the blinds. This lets you wait longer for premium hands.

Slotboom, in his book on PLO, says he spent a few years playing the short stack and he always tried to put the most aggressive player on his left so he would do his betting for him. More people would call the wild player, when they would have folded to Slotboom's more conservative image. He could also get his money in faster when he hit his hand by check raising.
