Revel AC Inc., the bankrupt Atlantic City casino, is hoping to be third-time lucky after it won a court’s permission to scrap its second attempted sale and try once more to find a buyer, Bloomberg News reported yesterday. If the company strikes out, it could be game over for the casino which has suffered along with the rest of the seaside New Jersey town as gamblers are drawn to venues in neighboring states. Revel representatives have said the company could be forced to liquidate if it can’t attract a buyer within five months. Bankruptcy Judge Gloria Burns at a hearing yesterday in Camden, New Jersey, gave the company permission to cancel its $95.4 million deal with Florida real estate investor Glenn Straub. She also ruled that Revel can keep the bidder’s $10 million deposit, which will be held in escrow.
