Line check - JTo in CO against raise from SB - NL200$

[Reckless Rick]

I just wanted to know how other players would have played this hand, since I am not sure about my line here.

I am at the table for about 5 orbits. Villian has been pretty aggressive, raising a lot (also out of position, trying to take control and also trying to punish limpers. MP1 is not that strong of a player here. I put him on a small pair here. He limps in, I limp behind with the intention to take away the pot from him post-flop. Villian raises from the SB.
I am getting 2:1 odds to call and I will have position on him. So I call. Does anyone fold here?

He checks the flop. Here, I put him on two high cards most of the time. Since I limped before the flop he might put me on a small pocket pair, therefore I bet the flop.
Surprisingly, he calls.
Does anyone bet here? Or is checking behind on the flop the better option?

The turncard is a Js. Villian bets out. I move all-in. Villian calls
How about just calling here instead of moving in?

On what type of hands do you put Villian in this spot?

Any other comments are welcomed.

DIE SHORTSTACKER....for one thing, dont shortstack, also ~40BB effective stacks doesn't warrant playing JTo, second if you were to play JTo raise it as you will have position on limper, limp calling a 5x raise from otb for 10% of your stack with JTo isn't too strong of a play, betting that flop is terrible in this situation also

Preflop: calling the first bet is ok but probably raise 60% or so here, calling the raise is questionable with the stacks but not to bad.

Flop: after calling maybe bet 50%, if you raised bet 80%, when you bet bet a little more or a little less, $15 is setting up a full pot bet on the turn which can lead to tricky situations

Turn: Tricky, without a hand I'd probably push here 50% fold 50%, these weak bets are often hands that cant call, with a hand I'd likely just call-evaluate the river.
