The turn is a fold (assuming you check flop and turn) because of the "implied aggression" factor and the fact that you're OOP. You're not calling the turn to get to showdown, you're calling the turn to get owned on the river (not that you did in this case, just that his owning leveraging since he's allowed to act after you is quite high). In cash games, specifically HU and specifically deep, it's correct to make incorrect folds with an alarmingly high frequency. When tournament players and limit players transition to HU cash (or just deep cash in general, usually shorthanded) this is the single biggest mistake they make by far. Essentially, it boils down to playing your hand too much and not the opponent or position.
Also, I was so sure you had A8 in this hand-- it might have been my first incorrect read ever.
