If you were strictly playing for a set's implied odds, you have to look at your stack size too which is under 10x (if you go by the 10x rule), right?
you are right. this is something i always forget to look at. I normally look for 13-15x the raise for implied odds since your not always going to stack someone when you hit, but far too many times i fail to take my stack size into consideration.

as for this hand, even though i didnt have 15x, i had over 8x and i was 90%+ sure that i would stack this villain if i hit.
