He 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 flush the shoe is in high cards that will bust her.
The high cards favor the player because they might break the house when he hits his stiffs and also Aces and Tens means blackjack for the gambler.
