Should I switch to solo mining?

Hello everyone,

I've been Bitcoin mining for just over one month using two machines each with three Radeon 5870 cards giving me approximately 2100 Mhash/second over the time period.

I've earn't an average of 1.5BTC per day on Slush's pool.

However, I've found THREE blocks = (3 x 50 BTC).

After finding the first "golden block" a few weeks ago I thought, "Meh - what are the odds? I'll stay in the pool". Then the second came and I thought, "That's my luck done for the quarter!". When the third came, I'm beginning to seriously reconsider pooled mining in favour of going solo.

My question to you all is this; am I best off staying in Slush' pool, moving to another pool or going solo?

Thanks in advance :-)
