Is there any way to know when (approximately) the current round will be over?
No. 
Topic: Bitcoinpool long round question (Read 764 times)
Something very strange and worrying happening at bitcoinpool. See my first post on the subject: http://organofcorti.blogspot.com/2012/10/81-bitcoinpool-another-bitclockers.html
currently the number of shares on average to find a block is 3,438,909
depending on the pools hashrate it can take longer or shorter to reach the average
note *average
it can take many more or many less shares to find a block - thats where the luck comes in
it is not possible to know when a pool will next find a block
the other question you would have to ask your pool operator about

Hi,
I've been pretty new to bitcoin mining. I've joined bitcoinpool.com and have mined during two blocks that didn't take very long to get payed a little.
So now I've been mining for 10 days and it seems that the current block still isn't finished, the round time is over 10 days! So I have a couple of questions:
* Is there any way to know when (approximately) the current round will be over?
* If the round is over after the payments go down with 50% to 25BTC, does that mean they will pay me out 50% of what I mined thus far?
Just some things that I hope someone reading this can clear up for me. THX
*EDIT* The round has completed shortly after I posted this. The answers still interest me... thanks.
