I had never been in a pool hall. Not for lack of possibilities, in several clubs in the city they are available, but, in reality, it had never caught my attention. Sometimes I think that I have spent my life ignoring everything related to some kind of hobbies that can be very enjoyable. I don't like videogames, nor does anything related to that world attract my, I've already verified it. Sports are not my thing either, from time to time I have played volleyball on the beach; I played basketball as a kid and maybe at one point or another I've tried another, but it's not like I've tried much.
However, I think billiards has caught my attention. Yesterday afternoon I discovered it while playing the first game with my friends.
It was saturday afternoon and there was no specific plan. Being at home already bored us, so after we finished watching a movie, we got ready and went to the game room.
The trip to the place was quite fast, we took a bus and we arrived immediately. The games room was acclimatized, luckily, because the heat this summer is unbearable. We sat down to wait for one of the pool tables to become available and while we drank some cocktails and we took a tour of the facility, called Club Santiago.
After a while, a table became available and we were able to start playing. They explained the rules of the game to me and I managed to get some balls in 😁.
There were games better than others. We played three games, the first one wasn't too bad for me. In the second I barely managed to get a ball in. Luckily in the last one I had a better performance 😋. But hey, that's what it's all about, improving little by little with practice.
It was a good weekend experience. I learned something new, that maybe it can become a skill 😏.
