Match Across Services irule on wildcard VS

I forgot the else portion, but I'm unsure this would actually match across ports. The incoming client should be directed to the same pool member regardless. Does a sticky persistence setting on the pool do this even when wildcard? Maybe I'm making it too complicated.

when CLIENT_ACCEPTED { if { [TCP::local_port] >= 18620 and [TCP::local_port] <= 18623 } { persist sticky [1800] use pool my_pool

    }
    else {
    pool my_pool
}
