While at a casino on Friday night my decision when faced with the above cards was queried by the guy next to me. He thought he was being helpful with his advice, but I didn't agree with his recommendation.
I also refrained from saying "don't you know who I am  "
Before revealing my views on this, what would you do, place your vote and any views.

The very last hand of the night goes to Dewi James, who finds ACES and talks Raymond O’Mahoney into calling his all-in preflop bet of 15k.  “If I had AQ, I’d call!” says Dewi.  Raymond calls holding pocket 66’s.

This all depends on what the running count is at the time.
To gain an advantage in Blackjack which is a game that can be beaten.
opinion does not matter there are rules you either stand/split/double or take a card
to be a winner in Blackjack you need to lose less with poor hands there are situations
where you would hit 12 v the dealer 6. Likewise there are times when you would stand
on 14 v a dealer 10.

DO NOT EVER WORRY ABOUT OTHERS PLAYERS AT THE TABLE IT DOES NOT MATTER
