small ball poker and full ring cash games?

[sweeng8]

trying to loosen up my cash game a lot and get away from the TAG im used to playing. I almost always play full ring NLH (usually 1/2 and 2/4)so my question is this. Playing at these limits in full ring games, is TAG the best way to play, or can you play a small ball LAG game to better your profits? I am a winning player at these limits though i feel im not really progressing much in my game with simple ABC tight poker. I just cant get the hang of playing short handed cash games (though im ok at short handed tournies), but it seems very difficult to play this type of loose poker at a full ring game?
Any thoughts?
