NV vs V at IMPs with RHO dealing, you hold:

♠ Q
♥ AKJT9874
♦ J63
♣ 6

You play Capp. and 1NT was 15-17. Your bid?

4 looks normal, but I'm closer to 5 than I am to 3.

4 seems just about right, yes. Why complicate what's simple? :)

comfortable 4H for me, some might call me conservative though.

ps. I watched this hand and know what happened, but doesn't affect my decision.

Ok be honest. Who told you that 4♥ is wrong that you are posting this to rub in his face? What did someone want you to do, pass so you can run hearts against 3NT?

I think I am not seeing something in this auction. But yeah, I overcall that 1NT with 4♥ also and think it is very clear.

hehe, Josh was close... I passed. :)

I later backed in with 5♥ and LHO bid 5♠... Which made 6. Anyway, this was an (in)-sanity check for me.

4H and no I don't play Cappelletti unless playing with a client who insists on it.
Even Mike no longer plays his eponymous convention.

Indeed. There are only two occasions where it's acceptable to play capp:

1. You're payed hefty royalties for it.

2. You're under threat of death.
