I usually play blackjack. I would like to try out slots, Is it true that after x amount of spins that you are guaranteed a free spins round?

What could be a minimum amount of spins needed for the free spins ?- 10 or 60 ?

For the most part NO. We have a member here that claims he can predict when a bonus round is coming, but I'm pretty sure it's hogwash.

There are certain games (very few) that are designed to have a bonus round initiate after X number of spins, however, it's usually indicated on the machine that's how it works. A current example of this is Scarab. Technically it's not the bonus round, but a built in feature.

Most bonus round slot machines are designed for the bonus to come up randomly. There will be an average amount/number of spins that it actually takes. It could come up on your very first spin or it could take 500 spins +. Each different type of game has a different frequency.

That is not true. You are not guaranteed a bonus round after x spins. It would be random with an average of x spins.

Older slots usually had more frequent bonuses probably around the 60 to 100 average. The newer slots tend to take more spins than that.
You can't know everything, but you can know anything.

How many spins do you think a newer slot takes for a bonus round on an average?

Most seem to be in the 300-500 range

go with the skill games for the free spins and bonus spins. I tried Prominentt Skill Games machines last month. You will get tons of free spins.
