I have never had a problem playing against a short stack.

You don't have implied odds to hit a set against them, so don't play small pocket pairs against the shorties.

pretty simple, tighten up to the premium hands against them. I don't mind letting AJ go to their reraise preflop.

Who cares if they win a few small pots from you?

Eventually they are going to run into your kings or aces and you drag their tiny stack in... and they spent that entire time building their short stack with blinds and small raises only to lose all of it in one hand.

Terrible players play short stacks, there is no advantage to flopping a monster and being limited by a lack of chips in front of you... short stack players are -EV.
