When is the last time something good has happen to you after betting into a field in these situations?

Probably around June 22, 1998 when everyone just folded the flop and I won a tiny pot. So you're checking here with the intention of doing what when there is action on the flop? Folding to a large bet or to a bet and a raise? I like how your play keeps the pot small and commits me less.

I think that's the right answer.
If there is a bet on the flop but no raise, you have a couple options. If the bet comes from an early position and two or three players fold, you can consider a check-raise (since you will usually have the best made hand here). If a late-position player bets big and you still have players to act behind you, you should probably just give it up.
