Low cards favor the croupier because they aid them make winning totals on her hands when he is stiff (has a twelve, 13, fourteen, 15, or sixteen total on their first two cards).

In casino vingt-et-un, you can hold on your stiffs if you choose to, but the casino cannot.

The house has no decision to make, but you do and this is your edge. The rules of gambling on twenty-one require that dealers hit stiffs no matter how loaded the shoe is in high cards that will bust her.

The high cards favor the gambler because they may break the dealer when he hits his stiffs and also because both tens and Aces mean blackjacks.

Although blackjacks are, evenly divided between the croupier and the gambler, the fact is that the gambler gets paid more (3:2) when he receives a blackjack so the player has an advantage.
