Uhm, well seated tubes with good rim tape, and no other issues rarely just sponanteously fail. And when they do you know it, i.e. they explode ripping apart at a seam, or a leak develops around the valve stem.

But just a hole in a tube is rarely the result of a bad tube. My bet is that something else caused your flat.

Any pics of the tube?
