Ethpool is a solo mining pool for miners with a lot of hash. You can read how to get started on the pool home page. Basically, you earn credits towards receiving a full block reward once you reach the top of payout list. The payout is sent to the ETH wallet address you use with your miner. You can use that wallet address to check your stats on the pool and approximately how long it will take before you receive a payout. With only 150 MH/s, it will take many many months of 24/7 mining before you will earn enough credits to get a a payout. With the hash you have you're much better off using a regular PPLNS pool like ethermine.org.
