Since I got an overpair and pot was large and they r short stacks, I couldn't fold when the villian reraised although I knew he got 2 pair, at least...
Wonder my bet on the flop was right

Looks fine to me.

Sort out the converter and you might get more response.

There's not way you aren't getting all in on the flop. Raise it to 5 preflop.

Isn't it too big bet relative to $1??

It amounts to 20xBB which I like as a reraise. If you reraise less you identify your hand without protecting it.

Since you have many players behind you, you run the risk of having a large multi-way pot in which your opponents can put you on a very narrow range of hands.

A larger re-raise doesn't identify your hand any less, but you get more money when people decide to try to outflop you and miss. You also limit the size of the field and make it more likely your 1-pair that you are willing to felt on any non-ace flop is going to hold up.
