Default 3 part question

Hello everyone. I have never posted in this Omaha forum so forgive me for any mistakes. Unfortunately I cannot find a hand convertor for omaha (Ladbrokes) so this will have to do. I have three questions. The first is discussion of a hand.

How bad is this bluff? Does it ever get through? What rivers are we firing another bullet?? I feel you are conquering a particular level so to speak when you make GOOD bluffs based on ranges and the texture of certain boards. I feel fairly certain that it is harder to bluff well in omaha than it is in holdem. Texuck is a rock fwiw, efesp is unknown.

efesp sitting in seat 1 with $195.00
- milk-man sitting in seat 2 with $95.66
- stoty sitting in seat 3 with $27.00 [Sitting out]
- ramraid sitting in seat 4 with $78.86
- texuck sitting in seat 5 with $177.76 [Dealer]
- Maddie84 sitting in seat 6 with $280.16

Maddie84 posted the small blind - $1.00
efesp posted the big blind - $2.00

** Dealing card to Maddie84: 10 of Hearts, 6 of Spades, King of Spades, 8 of Hearts
milk-man folded
ramraid folded
texuck called - $2.00
Maddie84 called - $2.00
efesp checked

** Dealing the flop: Ace of Hearts, 9 of Hearts, 5 of Spades
Maddie84 checked
efesp bet - $6.00
texuck called - $6.00
Maddie84 called - $6.00

** Dealing the turn: Queen of Clubs
Maddie84 checked
efesp bet - $12.00
texuck called - $12.00
Maddie84 raised - $60.00

Secondly I would like some comments on a situation i have found myself in with a mate. We attempted to qualify for the Leocop (ladbrokes) Omaha event which would have cost $220 + rebuys. I didnt front up anything for the satellite but we cruised through and we're going to play. We also played omaha cash and turned $133 into $415 whilst we were playing the Sat.

Here's the thing, my friend is pretty bad at omaha (sorry Dave) and may have got through the Satellite but would not have made the cash (which will be used as rebuys) but he did front up the money. Although i didnt pay him, I would have had to buy-in to the event (halves with him) so I was prepared to but didnt need to...

I have agreed to play the event together with him if I pay him $30 (half the satellite costs) and in turn we will get together 2 rebuys ($200 from the $280 we won). If we need to rebuy again we have to go halves. We each get 50% of winnings (which will probably be nothing after all this [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img])

What do you guys think, fair deal?

Lastly, what is the best way to play an omaha 200 man rebuy mtt which comprises mostly of holdem players. Do we add-on at the beginning and should we play loose or tight. I feel I am a better omaha player than holdem player but do not fancy rebuying 50 times! How bad will the field be considering it will 100% eurpean and it is a decent sized buy in.

Cliff notes:

Am I terrible? hand included.
Complicated staking deal.
Tourney infomation question.

Many thanks and good luck to everyone
