I agree with folding preflop. I think the reasoning of being deep for making the call is flawed for two reason. Firstly, you are not that deep, the villain in the hand has a 40bb stack. Secondly A8o plays better shallow than deep. Hands that warrant calling lighter when deep are hands that give you a decent chance of realising your implied odds; suited aces, suited connectors, low pairs. These hit nutted hands postflop often enough to make calls in this sort of situation, it’s rare that A8o is going to do the same.
I like the line you took postflop. I fold river, villain has so much value in his range and its hard to find any bluffs that take this line.
