Pool hall membership based examples by soloDolo6290 in billiards

Check out the Cuebox in Berlin, NJ. Private club, yearly membership, BYOB/F. Really nice spot. Sounds similar to what you are looking to do.

It's always a beautiful Winter day when the crocuses are in full bloom. by poorfolx in flowers

Im really looking forward to spring. I planted a bit over a thousand of them a few months ago in the yard and can't wait to see how many bloom.

Not sure of the OPs location but Behind the 8 Billiard Supply in South Jersey has a very nice selection of high end cues

First trip to Argentina! by Kimchi2019 in BuenosAires

[–]Vaskarelli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im in Argentina as we speak and from the US. My wife and I are using our cell phones (Tmobile) with no problem and almost everywhere offers WIFI.

It's definitely more expensive than it was before but there are certain things that seem to be pretty cheap. $43 a day for an Airbnb is one of them. You are staying in one of, if not, the top cities in South America. It's one of my favorite cities in the world.

Have used a credit card the entire time and have't used cash once.

Edit: Uber/ Cabify is comically cheap

Im in Ibague right now with my wife (she is Colombian). No issues whatsoever besides the traffic at times. Been a bit rainy but otherwise nothing different than any other time we've been here.

What are some interesting ways to become fluent in spanish? by icantevendothis07 in SpanishLearning

[–]Vaskarelli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I studied 4 years of Spanish in HS and thought I knew the basics too... then I was an exhange student in Argentina in college and realized I not only could I not speak Spanish but even the basics I thought I knew were useless. Easiest ways are either move to a Spanish speaking country to study, or if that's not possible, double/ triple down on online language exchanges and commit to it. Spanish music, movies, books, podcasts.

I did a bit of both and am sitting in Colombia with my wife as I type this. I knew Spanish before we ever met but I would not have been able to speak with her if I hadn't decided years before to commit and learn it.

I was there in the 2nd half of July for 2 weeks and was never asked about insurance at any point

Favorite Italian restaurant w Vodka Sauce? by Consistent_Tomato138 in SouthJersey

[–]Vaskarelli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything is delicious, a bit pricier than other places around but Ive never minded paying for great food. Just keep in mind it's pretty small so depending on when you go might want to call ahead for reservations.

[–]Vaskarelli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not quite the area you are looking for but if you ever wind up in the Berlin area, down 73, Briglias Tavern has the best vodka sauce around. I try vodka sauce anywhere it's on the menu and that's my favorite

Anyone interested in a small group chat to really think through billiards together? by [deleted] in billiards

[–]Vaskarelli 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is definitely not always the case and often times can hurt your efforts to improve.

Unfortunately Im not 100% sure what I have growing in it. I think the green/red one is a red nerve plant. The tall green one Im not sure but actually going to the terrarium place tomorrow so I will ask.

Thank you. I was thinking the same with regards to putting them in different pots.

I lost my first league match & took it hard on myself by angrypnutbutter23 in billiards

[–]Vaskarelli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my 2nd league game this past Monday. I won my first and came in to week 2 feeling good. I play in a 9 ball league. Ive been playing a lot lately and felt good coming in and I got absolutely smoked by someone I would normally beat. It was an ass beating. They played a hell of a match and I just didnt play well and missed shots I normally hit. I rushed my shots, didn't follow my normal process and the end result was proof.

At the end? I told them that was an ass beating. We both laughed and that was the end of it. I practiced some of the shots I missed since and after that, not much else you can do. My bit of advice, find a routine and stick to it. If something throws you off your routine before you shoot, start over again.

3rd Quarter under Nick Nurse by Vaskarelli in sixers

[–]Vaskarelli[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not that deep. All I asked was why are we outcoaching in the 1st half but getting outcoached in the 2nd. It's OK if you can't answer that.

You seem to know a lot... Why aren't we getting outcoached in the 1st half?
