You need more than one headlight, each in very different locations such as one on the handlebars and one mounted near the front axle. You don't necessarily need MORE light, just light reflecting from road hazards at the right angle.
The angle of your headlight didn't illuminate the shadows created by a pothole when the light strikes it at the proper angles. It's one of the perils of riding at night.
Those angles I referred to: You could try a second headlight mounted on the opposite side of the handlebar. It could be horizontal angle vs. vertical angle of the light which caused the problem. Try borrowing a friend's light to test the theory.
