Default From Holdem to Omaha

Ok, so i consider myself a pretty competent holdem player but i have a couple of Omaha Hi tourneys coming up and although i know how to play, im sure there is a totally different strategy, seeing as there are less cards in the deck after the deal etc.. Can anyone link me to sites giving me some usefull tips or give me a few here.

since there are less cards left after the deal, your draws come in more often. For example if you have a flush draw on the flop you are about 55-60% to hit it by the river.

Is this true for all suits or just the red ones?

Biggest tips I can give are:

1. Dont overplay your big pairs. If you miss the flop more than likely its no longer good

2. You NEED to learn to laydown big made hands. (IE nut flush when theres a pair on the board, etc.)
