As we have dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a game of talent and luck. The aim is to shift your checkers carefully around the board to your inside board while at the same time your opposing player moves their pieces toward their home board in the opposing direction. With competing player pieces shifting in opposite directions there is going to be conflict and the need for particular tactics at specific instances. Here are the two final Backgammon techniques to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Strategy
If the goal of the blocking tactic is to hamper the opponents ability to move his chips, the Priming Game strategy is to absolutely stop any activity of the opponent by creating a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s chips will either get bumped, or result a battered position if he ever attempts to escape the wall. The trap of the prime can be built anyplace between point 2 and point eleven in your half of the board. As soon as you’ve successfully assembled the prime to block the movement of the competitor, the competitor does not even get to roll the dice, and you move your checkers and toss the dice again. You’ll be a winner for sure.
The Back Game Strategy
The goals of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game strategy are very similar – to harm your opponent’s positions hoping to boost your chances of succeeding, however the Back Game plan relies on different techniques to do that. The Back Game strategy is often utilized when you’re far behind your competitor. To participate in Backgammon with this strategy, you have to control two or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This plan is more challenging than others to employ in Backgammon seeing as it requires careful movement of your chips and how the pieces are relocated is partially the outcome of the dice roll.
