I find this very interesting and aim to follow. Relatively "new ish" prospector/mining company here: PLAINVI3W MINING. Hashing right around 1 Ph on Braiins. Reading up on solo mining and found this thread. 

So, basically you allocate 1 or 2 of your total machines towards a "low hashrate" pool. Or are you pointing a % of hashrate to different pools in software somehow?

Also, if a low hashrate pool hits, the reward is greater?
I did not know this.

Seeking more info on different mining strategies.

Thank you!
