Hi Falooda,

you may try one of the snippets below...

Using a 

[string match]
syntax:

when HTTP REQUEST { 
    if { [string match "/*/*" [HTTP::path]] } then { 
        pool URI_POOL
    } else {
        pool EXAMPLE 
    }
}

Using a 

[switch -glob]
syntax:

when HTTP REQUEST { 
    switch -glob -- [HTTP::path] "/*/*" { 
        pool URI_POOL
    } default {
        pool EXAMPLE 
    }
}

Note: The first example has a slightly better performance.

Cheers, Kai
