She has no decision to make, but you do and this is your edge. The rules of betting on twenty-one require that croupiers hit stiffs no matter how flush the deck is in high cards that will break them.
The high cards favor the player because they could bust the casino when she hits their stiffs and also Aces and Tens means blackjack for the gambler.
Although blackjacks are, evenly dispensed between the house and the gambler, the fact is that the player gets paid more (3:2) when he gets a blackjack so the player has an edge.
You don’t have to count the numbers of each of the individual card in order to know when you have an edge over the casino.
You simply need to know at what point the shoe is loaded or poor in high cards and you can boost your wager when the odds are in your favour.
This is a basic account of why card-counting schemes work, but gives you an insight into why the rationale works.
