Default Even I can beat stud!

Looking at various PT data I was very surprised to find that stud hi is my most profitable game in HORSE (actually it might be razz, but I haven't split out the HORSE from pure razz tables). This led to me wondering who is playing in these games. Originally I assumed you'd have alot of stud/omaha players preying on the donks. Instead (given how curious people are to know how many times I reload a month) I now believe that it is mostly hold'em semi-pro's who think they can beat any game. Does anyone have a large enough sample size to say what the softer games are?

Oh yes, as for how bad some people are at stud I must give this example. Also to illustrate how bad I am, yesterday I would have limped 3rd instead of raising (thank you 7csfap!)
