Hello
I think that BTC GUILD is the best. But I am not specialist in BTC. Do you know any other good pools?

There isn't a 'best' pool.
In fact; it doesn't matter which pool you are in. The only thing you need is a bit of luck.

There are, however, quite a few pools that fall into the "worst" category...... ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Any pool that has reliable & constant uptime with rapid customer support can be considered usable.

As already told, theres no "best". What you can do is do compare some pools on following facts: - Uptime - DDOS-Protection - Do they run custom software? - Payout System (PPLNS,Prop...) - Did they already payout? - Support Speed - How many Blocks they found - User experience (Google for it) - Financial Stability - How long are they online? - Do they successfull run any other coins? - Security (Two factor auth) And so on ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) , good luck with choosing your Pool ! ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

This comparison is what you need OP. Sometimes your pool find more blocks, sometimes others. In the end you get similar amount of bitcoins.

Now Guild has email notification when a worker is donw when Ghash has for the total hashing (not so helpfull in my opinion) Anyway as I said small difference.

![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) weel, when i see my graph with the Th/s ... when you have 200Th/s, you find no block in single day. with 600TH/s, it's better ... 1 block per day. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) ... luck ? well ... ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)
