The house has no choice to make, but you do and this is your advantage. The rules of playing blackjack require that croupiers hit stiffs no matter how flush the shoe is in high cards that will break her.
The high cards favour the player because they might break the dealer when he hits their stiffs and also blackjacks are made with aces and tens.
Although blackjacks are, evenly dispersed 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 edge.
