A younger conservative player opened the pot for 7x the bb ($35) i gave him credit for a pretty good hand but called with 77 for a possible huge pot.

Be careful what you wish for. You wanted a huge pot, and you were able to accomplish your objective. (ZZzz)

Seriously though, people dont lay down TPTK in live 5/5 games like this. Seeing that he does back his stack with TPTK shows that your call preflop was pos EV and you should have just waited for when you DID get the set.
