## Using connections

When you need to execute sequential queries (without a transaction), you can create a new connection or borrow one from the pool:

Prepared queries can be created:

    connection.prepare("SELECT * FROM users WHERE first_name LIKE \$1", { ar1 ->
      if (ar1.succeeded()) {
        def pq = ar1.result()
        pq.query().execute(Tuple.of("andy"), { ar2 ->
          if (ar2.succeeded()) {
            // All rows
            def rows = ar2.result()
          }
        })
      }
    })
