You guys might want to throw in some implied odds into your arguments. What portion of the bet you're calling is only part of the puzzle.

Don't stop at just implied odds. Also determine what your effective odds are. At this point, hero is getting 5:1 immediate odds. However, he will likely have to call 2 big bets to get to a showdown unimproved thus making him effectivly 9:5 on his flop call meaning that he has to win this hand 1 out of 3 times to be profitable. Fold flop.
