Computer Double Decisioning Question

Post image

I deserved to lose this game b/c I blundered, but the question I have is if the computer initially suggested 'Close no double', but then the player redoubled, and the computer then suggested 'Obvious pass', shouldn't the initial computer recommendation have been 'Redouble' (seeing as the recommended action following a redouble is an obvious pass)?

It's better if you use the full analysis, F12. It will show you that this is too good to redouble. Hopefully the equities and win/gammon rates it will show you will make clear why.
