i think you should bet the flop. if a reasonable opponent raises you should be a little bit unhappy and then put all your money in and cross your fingers cause your probably a dog but not a huge one. i dont really understand the suggestions to bet and fold to a raise for the amount of money that is in play.

i think checking the flop is a mistake because up until the point you get raised its reasonable to think your hand is best. if its checked through you arent likely to have created much value for yourself on the turn whether you hit your hand or not so all it really does it let worse hands draw for free.
