Please reread again. Hero did not give implied odds for a set as 100 is 1/7th his stack.

Assuming Hero is felting it against one player, which is most likely:

Hero has $750 in front of him. Assume he gets one caller who has him covered.

Pot is $102 once Hero calls. Hero raises an additional $80. He has $650 left.

Caller needs to call $80 to win $102 + $80 + $650 = $832. So he's getting implied odds of 832:80, or 10.4:1.

Odds of flopping a set are 7.5:1. One caller would be getting correct odds to call here.

If Hero raises to $150 and gets one caller, then the caller will be calling $130 to win $832. So he would be getting implied odds of 832:130, or 6.40:1.

Hero definitely should raise to more than $100. I like technologic's suggestion of raising to $150.
