Color of Money Challenge – Last Day

Title:  Color of Money Challenge – Last Day                   Duration: ~110 minutes
Players: Efren Reyes (PHI) v Earl Strickland (USA)         Rating: 8/10
Venue / Date: 1996 Hong Kong.
Description: The Climax of perhaps the greatest 9-ball pool challenge ever staged and arguably the best comeback in pool history. In this series of 14 video parts Efren recovers from a 100 – 109 deficit to win the match 120-117. At one stage before this video series begins the score was 92-109 (I believe), Efren trailing by 17 frames, needing 28 with Earl needing just 11 to win the challenge.

The Color of Money as it was dubbed by Australian promoter Bob Moore, was a US$100,000 winner take all race to 120 frames held in an elite Hong Kong venue which was a Black Tie affair. I've read that the money was actually split 75-25.

This is a low resolution version of tape 13 of the full 13+ hour VHS video tape series which is available from www.accu-stats.com for US$260.00. See: Hong Kong Challenge.
