i noted in my post on this topic (there is a linky above) that you can usually call just for set value if you like against a 3bet when you 3x it.

IDK dude, you are usually too shallow anyway in 100BB games. I mean most regs still 3-bet enough to deny you odds. Maybe this is more applicable to PL.

i did the calculations in that other post, but you need to stack him something like 6.5% to breakeven when you open 3x typically, so in theory you have the odds to only setmine. not saying it is the best move, but it should be +EV

No, what I'm saying is Villains will typically pop it to 13x-14x anyway because of 1.) laziness/habit and 2.) to deny you set odds. But maybe your games play differently.
