Default Re: Set in unraised $100 NL pot - call $200?

[ QUOTE ]
Since your starting stack was over 200 BBs, you should fold. If you (or villain) had only 100 BBs, I might consider a call, and at, say, 75 BBs it would be an easy call. However, a losing set should only lose around 100-120 BBs.

Although I understand what you're trying to say here, I have to argue that it makes no difference how many bets he hypothetically wins or loses on the hand. Assuming there's $0 in the pot (it's pretty close), he's getting 1 to 1 on his call regardless, so as long as he wins more than half the time the call is profitable. Doesn't matter whether he's risking 50BB or 1,000BB in my opinion, except where bankroll is concerned.
