How bad of a beat was this (first time playing)

Back story - So I played in a casino for the first time last night. The table's blind was 1.50$ / 3.00$ and there were about 8 people total. I've played plenty of facebook poker because that's the only way for me to practice anything, but only 4 times in real life with friends and relatives.

I went in with the minimum buy-in of 65$, got up to 105$ with a lucky hand (flopped a set of jacks).

But then I went back to 65$ eventually, and then quickly lost all of that in one hand.
I was dealt an A,8 suited and the other guy puts in 15$ preflop and I call.

The flop i A,3,5 and I decided to bet 50$ to scare him off but he called and went all-in! So I put my remaining 15$ into the pot and then we both turned over our cards.

He had a 2,4, which gave him a straight, and the turn and river didn't matter but I did pair both my Ace and 8.

So was this a typical bad beat or a very bad one? I felt so unlucky yesterday and even though I sat through a total of 25 rounds, I saw someone get a four of a kind.

wow this is like the 9th worst beat i've ever heard, sorry for your losses

Where'd the other comments go?

Always assume the answer to this is "Yes" regardless of who posted it as it is almost always the case.

There is no call, only raise, and fold.
