1 minute?? really! Im not complaining, but this makes no since to me....29hr...20 hr...oh boy 1 min...

Sometimes someone plays the lottery every week their entire life without winning. And then someone plays just a single time and wins. What actually wouldn't make sense is if everyone would win after playing exactly 50 times.

is the luck REALLY this bad usually? is this happening in other pools too does anyone know? there is some very high CDF going on at the moment...

No, it's not usually that bad. And yes, bad luck happens on all pools.

We did have some really bad luck before and that time Organofcorti did a thorough analysis which you can read here: http://organofcorti.blogspot.com/2013/05/131-bitminter-and-luck.html
