Re: Don\'t slowplay a monster in family pot!
Don't be afraid of not getting action. Make your bets. Checking the flop isn't horrible, but a 1/2 size pot bet wouldn't be so big as to scare anyone off with a real hand. And if you run into a bunch of missed hands then that's just unlucky -- most of the luck in poker doens't have to do with the quality of cards you're dealt, but rather what your opponents get when you make a strong hand. You get paid off best when you have a good hand and an opponent has a good, but slightly worse one.
