Generally in PL games, the blinds are rounded up for the sake of simplicity. Post-flop, the chips used for the blinds aren't used for betting.
In this game, it would make sense to bet in increments of $5, making the max bring-in $5.
The thing about PL games is it's generally up to the table what to do about this kind of thing. You all could say the max bring-in was $10 if you wanted. Or you can restrict it to $3 and not do any rounding on any street (tho' I don't recommend it).

Yes, he gets cards until there's a bet.
No, he does not get to play, unless the fold was a misunderstanding and it's caught immediately and his cards aren't in the muck. This is dangerous, though. If he wins, feelings will be hurt. If he puts more money in the pot and loses, he'll feel pretty crappy.
