No WAY can you check this flop. You don't want to give 78, or some kind of club combination a free card in this situation. Checking is like slow-playing in this spot and your one pair isn't strong enough to slowplay.
The best time to induce a bluff, in my opinion, is when you're like 99% positive you have the best hand and 99% positive that your opponent will bluff at it. Otherwise you're missing value by checking. For example, a couple months back, I had AK and the flop came Kxx with two hearts. I bet, the villain instantly called like he was on a draw. Turn was a blank, I bet, he called quickly again. The river was a blank, didn't make any straights, didn't make any flushes. I also knew this particular villain had a history of taking shots on the river with missed draws. So I checked. He bet pot, and I insta-called him. He said, "FOCK" and threw his hand into the muck.

PF you want to raise more. Say to at least $5 or $6. The minraise here is screaming aces.
The rest of the hand is fine.
