Why did Itachi put Kakashi in a genjutsu?

Can Itachi’s tsukuyomi be broken?

Tsukuyomi can’t be broken, when used to it’s fullest. There’s more evidence that Itachi was holding back than not, in his battle with Sasuke. If Itachi’s Tsukuyomi succeeded than it would have ruined everything and the only way he could make sure Sasuke wouldn’t lose is by holding back.
