CO has 12.85 left in his stack. We want to bet slightly less than that amount. This will allow us to 3-bet AI if he pushes, assuming that the SB comes along.
$6.40 is the perfect bet size here.

I like this thought process but what happens when SB/BB don't have a hand that warrants calling off 100BBs on the flop?
SB isn't going to dump his stack with a marginal hand on this board. He would need a powerhouse hand.
I'd target out BB. If we bet $8, and CO shoves then it's only a few bucks more for BB to call. If BB is going to call $8 then he's probably going toss in a few extra bucks that CO added.
If BB's hand improves on the turn then he might be willing to play for 100BBs even while drawing pretty much dead.
