Have you had the car tuned for the stall sounds like what some people call "stall wall"
Basically due to the slippage in the stall the RPM is higher and the MPH has not made it to the speed needed for the shift and so you hit the limiter and no shift.
At lower throttle you don't have as much slip in the converter and when the car spins the load on the converter actually drops also and the speed is attained faster at least from the PCMs perspective
