thanks a lot for your kind help, the first one seems great, but will the rest of clients proceed normally load balanced to the nodes? or should i add (else) too there?

With the first one if it doesn't match the IF statement then it will use the default pool assigned to the VIP. Typically if I'm going to use an iRule to load balance more than just a one off exception I use the iRule to pick the pool or node for all traffic. The first one I would just consider an exception so I wouldn't use the iRule to pick the pool or node for all traffic.
