Wow that hand was insane! I really do believe that poker is 30-40% luck based, I mean you have to take a chance with a flop like that but it's really frustrating when someone get a pocket pair too.

Unlucky 72... what you have to remember in Poker is to get your money in when you're ahead!
After that it is down to the poker gods (luck) and somtimes you will lose out. Nothing wrong with any of the play in this hand to be honest, you just got unlucky!
I had a similar hand but I had QQ vs KT... K on river... gutted... and this was after my re-raise all-in preflop THAT HE CALLED with his KTo for the remaining 2/3 of his stack! Just bad luck for me that he hit... I don't mind his call as I was way ahead of him, same as you were, but then the poker gods reach down from above and flip the killer river card!
Keep going mate... you did good but got unlucky!

Except for the pocket 7s those really rent that bad of hands to consider an allin call or bet preflop. The 7s id drop because of all the people in the hand but heads up id probably call. But if those allins would have gone on after the flop then even the pocket Ks would be likely to fold.
