The dealer has no choice to make, but you do and this is your advantage. The rules of playing 21 require that dealers hit stiffs no matter how loaded the deck is in high cards that will break her.
The high cards favor the player because they may break the house when she hits her stiffs and also Aces and Tens means blackjack for the gambler.
Though blackjacks are, evenly divided between the croupier and the gambler, the fact is that the player gets paid more (3:2) when he receives a blackjack so the player has an advantage.
