If you spike an A you won't get paid off.

This doesn't seem true. In blind battles, villain will almost always pay you off if they hit a worse pair. It seems that in blind battles, many SH players simply ignore the top card on the flop (i.e. if villain has PP, he's seeing a showdown). This is obviously player-dependent, but esp. in blind battles, it has been my experience that you will definitely get paid off by worse hands, including bluffs, semi-bluffs, worse pairs, etc.
