The deal between Itachi and Obito seemed to be completely in Obito's favor.
Thinking Tobi was Madara, the deal was the Itachi would help him as long as he didn't lay a hand on Konoha. Little did he know that he wasn't Madara. Not only that but the 9 Tails needed to be captured last either way.
In the end, Itachi worked under Obito without realizing that he had been tricked.
Something about using Itachi to stimulate Sasuke as well.
Well said.
He knew sasuke was going to try and kill itachi. He knew Itachi would let sasuke win, He knew it was only a matter of time before they fought. Obito didn't want to break his promise, end of story.
And then Obito used Itachi's death to manipulate Sasuke. He made Sasuke love Itachi again, so Itachi's death would awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan. Then he helped the hate in Sasuke bloom and guide him in the direction he wanted, along with provoking Sasuke into wanting the EMS.
