new 12 spot BJ

I was at the Mohegan Sun Friday and noted that they now have replaced some of the 8 deck BJ with a 12 spot BJ gam. The rules are the same Except that each player is able to jump form one hand to two hands at will ( thus 6 playes x2 hands = 12 spots being delt cards)

With a number of counters at the table the count goes up and the 12 spot snow have a bet on them

This seems to eat up cards and would reduece the number of hands being delt out. I would think that this would also reduce any edge you might have at this game ???

any thoughts on this- any angle onthis game that would make it favroable to play ?

thanks
