All pools of cache (default, keep, recycle, nK) use absolutely the same algorithms. You can make one big KEEP pool and put big full-scaned tables in it and one small RECYCLE pool and put important/lookup tables in it. The name of the pool is just to explain it's idea. The behaviour (once a block is in the pool) is the same for all.
Not quite the same behaviour. There are subtle differences between the pools in how Oracle decides which blocks to age out. Steve Adams has information about that. Search the archives or his website for details. But the pools are completely separate. And once you assigned a segment to a particular pool it has to go into that pool and can't "overflow" into another pool.
