Standing on 19 against an Ace is the correct basic strategy play; doubling would risk turning a strong hand into a bust.

With a hard 13 against dealer's 7, basic strategy recommends hitting to improve the hand, as standing leaves too much risk of losing to dealer's likely 17+.

Standing on 15 against a dealer 5 is the basic-strategy play; doubling would risk busting with a weak total, and hitting has a high bust probability.

Hard 9 vs dealer 5 is a clear double opportunity, but doubling a split hand is risky; hitting keeps the hand alive and avoids busting on a weak total.

Hard 12 against dealer 5 is a basic-strategy stand, but this is a split hand and the ruleset's fallback is stand; hitting avoids the risk of a stiff total on a weak dealer upcard while staying within legal options.

Standing on 18 is correct against the dealer's 5 upcard, as the dealer is highly likely to bust and I risk improving to a worse total by hitting.

Standing on 12 against a dealer 5 is risky since the dealer is likely to make 17-21. Hitting gives a chance to improve, and doubling is too aggressive with a weak 12.
