As we have dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a casino game of talent and good luck. The aim is to shift your pieces safely around the board to your inner board and at the same time your opposing player shifts their pieces toward their inside board in the opposite direction. With opposing player checkers moving in opposing directions there is going to be conflict and the need for specific techniques at particular instances. Here are the last 2 Backgammon techniques to complete your game.

The Priming Game Plan

If the aim of the blocking strategy is to hamper the opponents ability to move his pieces, the Priming Game tactic is to completely barricade any activity of the opponent by creating a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s chips will either get bumped, or result a battered position if he/she ever tries to leave the wall. The ambush of the prime can be established anyplace between point 2 and point 11 in your half of the board. As soon as you have successfully built the prime to block the movement of your opponent, the opponent does not even get to roll the dice, that means you shift your chips and toss the dice yet again. You will win the game for sure.

The Back Game Strategy

The objectives of the Back Game strategy and the Blocking Game tactic are similar – to harm your competitor’s positions in hope to better your odds of succeeding, however the Back Game tactic uses alternate tactics to do that. The Back Game strategy is frequently utilized when you’re far behind your opponent. To participate in Backgammon with this strategy, you need to hold two or more points in table, and to hit a blot (a single checker) late in the game. This tactic is more difficult than others to use in Backgammon because it requires careful movement of your chips and how the chips are relocated is partially the result of the dice roll.
