And again the road to the 8 hours ( or more )  without finding a block. Sad

I wonder if shuting down the miners after the average number of  daily block have been found is not a better deal...

I just mine elsewhere once luck hits more than 150% - and come back when luck starts to trend to 80

Yes I've already thought about switch pool when bad luck, have you noticed a real gain doing that ?  
Ps: as soon as I spoke about slushpool, they found a block ! But still under 75% luck right now...

It's a gamble of course, but given how we expect 100% luck over the long run, I've made quite a bit on PPS pools and then switching back when I feel it's time for a run of good luck.

Scoring time is 1.5 hours, so with 100% luck for slushpool at around 1.5 hours as well odds are in my favor to fully "ramp" up the scoring hash rate by the time a block is found after I switch the miner back.

Edit: example - i switched 50% of my hash from slush to a pps pool a few blocks before the 8 hour block. In that 8 hours, I made maybe 2.5x what I made on Slush in the same period.
