In AC, you can play two hands without dubling the min. During slower times of the day, min bets are $20 or $25.
I have seen doubling the min for two hands in Vegas. I have also seen, as you say, not being able to play two hands. At the Wynn, you can play two hands, but one must be set the house way.
