The question is :
Why some pools with low global
hashrate power find more bitcoin blocks
than other pools with higher hashrate power ?

Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

The answer is just dumb luck.

If you flip a coin 4 times and it lands on tails (3) times do you question it?

It's all pure random luck.
The more hashing power you have the more shares/chances you or the pool have at solving a block.
