Pocket Kings Get 'Breyfogled'

A player under the gun opened the betting with a raise to 800. Action passed around to Todd Breyfogle, and he made the call from middle position.

The heads-up flop came out {8-Spades} {7-Spades} {5-Spades}. The unknown player bet out 2,000, and Breyfogle moved all in for a total of 9,000. His opponent called, and the hands were shown down:

Breyfogle: {7-Clubs} {7-Diamonds}
Opponent: {K-Hearts} {K-Clubs}

Fourth and fifth streets brought the {4-Spades} and {2-Hearts} respectively. Breyfogle's set of sevens holds up, and he doubles up to 21,000.
