I play it now and then to mix things up. I was playing 15/30 (and a bit of 30/60) and getting my ass handed to me by the uberdonks - suckout after suckout after suckout (plus horribly missed flops cobmined with getting called down by 4th pair, etc).... When that happens, I like to take a break and switch it up and play a little NL, where I can pay to make them chase with their trash and where bluffs actually work. Short handed limit is still my best game, but I do ok at NL too. I finished this session right about even, so I did ok on the other table...
As for them putting all their money in as underdogs, the flush guy had reasonable odds (I think), but the guy who put all his money in with the double gutshot when I bet the pot on the flop - oh man..... he deserved to go broke. He hit his "outs" and still lost.
