So the initial raise assuming is to 3.5bb, 3bet is to 12.5BB or so? If it is that much or less I definitely cold call given reads and try to flop a set in a big, probably 3-way pot.

Ok, but that can work only because it is probably going to be three-way, and it is still marginal, isn´t it? As we are going to win just ~80% of the time when we hit our set (maybe a bit more here, as as the 3-bettor probably doesn´t have seomthing that makes a straight or a flush easily), we need to win ~11 times our inital investment with each set just to break even. That´s 137,5 BB in our examble - meh.
