Only 25 hands on both of these guys.. UTG+1 is 50/0 and BB is 33/22. BB has been to showdown 100%(3). I wasn't sure what the best line to take here was. I bet big so that calling wouldn't be an option for them. I did not wanna bet a lil more than half or 2/3rds coz there are a lot of bad cards that can come on the turn. Stack sizes would also be really weird. I figured that their shoving range would be quite wide and so by betting big they will also include pair and gutshots, or strong top pair hands into that range.

What are some other lines to take in this scenario?

I think it is played fine. If the flop raise was that big from a FS player then you might be boned. Half stackers do all kinds of retarded shit. He does this with anything from TP hands to FD to sets. I think its a good call

You overbet to induce a shove and got one, pretty easy to snap this off. You'll have them destroyed a lot and you have blockers for some of his draws.
