The AI tends to invade the planet the fleet encounters in the combat window first. Now, you may have ordered it to attack the bigger one, and some people insist that never fails -- but people do report this sort of failure often enough to make me think it may be a mild bug.

Actually off the top of my head I can not remember ever being able to capture the bigger planet. It seems like every time I try I end up capturing the moon and glassing the larger planet, without exception. At least in my experience that has been the case. I wish there was some way to get the bigger planet.
