    Default Standard or bad play?

    Ok, so i made this play and afterwards, 2 players at the table started saying how it was a bad play because of the gap concept and my position and that i was 50/50 at best. I really disagree though, i think this is completely standard. What you all think? BTW it was a 24+2 MTT.

    Really standard raise to isolate imo, with 6BBs he should be really wide. TT is way ahead of his range.

    I agree, gap concept doesn't really apply here considering his stack size.

    I was going to say something about the size of your re-raise, but the players left to act have to commit their stacks to get in no matter what you raise. Looks good to me.
