Bad read

Last night's session was short, and not at all sweet. On the first hand where I paid to see the flop, I'd been dealt A8o (ace eight offsuit), and hit a pair of aces. After all the betting rounds were over, nearly all my chips were in the middle, and I had only one opponent. He turned over AJo (ace jack offsuit), and my stack was on life support. I somehow managed to last a couple of orbits, but hit the rail with 30 minutes left in the late registration period. Ouch! My read was that my opponent had a more ragged ace than mine. It was a bad read, but I'm proud that I had the guts to go with it.
