She has no choice to make, but you do and this is your edge. The rules of betting on vingt-et-un require that croupiers hit stiffs no matter how rich the shoe is in high cards that will break him.

The high cards favour the gambler because they might bust the house when he hits her stiffs and also because both tens and Aces mean blackjacks.
