The casino has no decision 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 flush the deck is in high cards that will break them.
The high cards favour the player because they could break the croupier when she hits her stiffs and also blackjacks are made with aces and tens.
