Opener's direct double doesn't normally mean penalties. In fact, I don't really know what it does mean, because I rarely see it.

In England, this double is commonly played as a "strong NT double" because the predominant system is Acol. One of the advantages of a strong NT is getting to use this double for something more useful.
