Kitai Flopping a Full House

Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Matthias Lipp three-bet to 4,000 from the big blind after Conor Beresford raised to 1,000 from the button, with Davidi Kitai also calling. Beresford bowed out of the hand, leaving Kitai to call from the small blind.
On the 7?5?7? flop, Kitai seized the initiative with a check-raise to 4,500 after Lipp bet 1,500.
The 7? on the turn prompted Lipp to make a another modest bet of 1,500, which Kitai called.
With no further betting on the 9? river, the hand proceeded to showdown. Kitai revealed his flopped full house with 5?5?, while Lipp's cards found their way into the muck.
