Too bad you weren't using this pool: http://bitsolo.net/  They promise to pay the full 25 BTC to anyone who finds a block. 

I just got an Antminer S1 to replace my USB block erupter.  The Antminer is hashing away in a large pool.  I am using the block erupter now in the pool above.  I know it's a one in a million chance.  But maybe I'll get lucky and find a block.  It' like playing the lottery.
I don't get this. Why is is called a 'pool' when you will receive the full 25 btc on your own?

It is called "Bitcoin Solo Mining Pool".
Btw, why do you need this "pool" if you want to do solo mining lol?

I am trying out this solo/pool now because I want to solo with some of my S1's and they are a PITA to get to solo mine.  I'm trying to setup my own pool but that isn't a cake walk either.
