Should i hit on 20?

Players are allowed to hit on any hand that totals 20 or less, but it's not advisable to do so on anything too close to 21 (see our “When to stand” section further down.) The reason is that if your hand exceeds 21 – you'll have “busted” and will automatically lose your bet.

Should i hit 16 against a 7?

Should i hit on 16 bj?
It is best to hit when holding a hand of 10 or 12-16, and stand on anything 17 and over. An ace gives you a good chance of making 21 with a hit. When a dealer has a seven, eight or nine card it is impossible for them to make a blackjack, so your chances increase.
