Newbie question number 2.
Would it be considered better to mine in a pool with more miners or less miners? Why?
What are the cause and effects of more or less miners? etc. winning the pool..? deadline variances? what is important to know.
I am trying to figure out the differences in mining for example;
pool#1 - pool.burst-team.us
or
pool#2 - pool.burstcoin.de
or should i just stay off pool 2 altogether?
mining with 647gb / i5 / laptop / 8 ram - what I have so no judgement please.
any advice regarding the pools would be appreciated. learning as best I can and capable too.
Thank you in advance

@TIG312 You want to find a balance: a pool with too few miners and you're not going to find blocks amongst you often enough - you're almost solomining. A pool with too many/too powerful miners and you'll win a steady share of blocks, but your portion of the reward is probably tiny.
I'd got with pool #1 - but I'm biased - I run it :)

@haitch Thanks for your reply even if its biased its still good decent advice and that's always appreciated! thanks and happy mining!
