Mining for (non-standard) Bitcoin transactions

Does anyone know of any pools that allow you to insert your own transactions into the blocks they mine?

That is not possible.

I agree, this does not seem possible.

Here's a paper on 'Exclusive Mining'. Essentially just sending your signed transaction to a miner that they can then include in their next block. I haven't followed all of the response to the paper so I'm not entirely certain, but have seen it referenced a few times.

To the OP, I have no idea if any pool allows this.
