I dont know the odds but they have to be in the 100:1 range.
This math is actually the wrong math to be doing.
The reason is because we have already flopped a set, so we are not looking for the probability of all 3 of these things occurring, but instead of the conditional probability of these 3 things, given that the first occurs.
If you believe the probability of all of these things is in the 100:1 range, then the conditional probability is almost certainly less than 15:1, probably more like 13:1 or 12:1. That's still unlikely but it's a LOT more likely than you're trying to convince OP it is.
Also, bet/bet/bet is clearly the way to go postflop; it's just a question of how the bets are sized. I'd want to know stack sizes, which OP has omitted, before deciding on sizing.
