Haven't read through much of the thread but as far as sets go the primary rule to remember is as follows:  *ahem*

[INDENT][SIZE=4][COLOR=black][B]BOTTOM SET NO GOOD![/B][/COLOR][/SIZE]
[/INDENT]But what if...?  NO.  No buts, it's virtually trash.  And most hands that make bottom set when they make a set are not worth playing in the first place.  Anything with 22, 33, 44 or 55 in it for the most part is a crappy hand.

On a more serious note.  EVERYTHING is a drawing hand in omaha and that includes ANY flopped set.  You are, depending on the board, at least somewhat vulnerable to extremely vulnerable even with top set.  Bottom set is just trash for the most part.  You are drawing to a full house and you aren't really happy till you get there.  With bottom set, you often aren't happy even if you DO get to your full house.   Meanwhile your opponent(s) are drawing to every straight and flush imaginable as well as higher full houses often and more often than not, one of em gets there.
