Fold preflop IMO.

This is a fold preflop. Marginal trash hand (no nuts potential). Position is horrible.
That's why. Two holdem hands don't make an omaha hand.

Never call on the flop. You could already be drawing dead to KK and your basically
more than dead to AKQT. These are spots where you're going to loose a lot of money.

fold preflop, fold flop..
your hand is pretty weak, on the flop your drawing very thin against straights or you're dead to topset.

I don't like folding that hand necessarily from SB, and from the button I might consider even raising it (yeah, I'm loose :() in short handed tables. Not that it has much potential for anything, but it's not as drastic mistake as calling pot sized bet on the flop, never mind the turn! Unless your opponent has a bad habit of calling everything on the river, then you should just fold the hand and wait for a better opportunity.
