As we dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a casino game of talent and luck. The aim is to shift your pieces carefully around the game board to your inner board while at the same time your opponent shifts their checkers toward their inner board in the opposite direction. With competing player pieces heading in opposite directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for particular techniques at particular instances. Here are the two final Backgammon strategies to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Strategy
If the aim of the blocking strategy is to hamper the opponents ability to move her checkers, the Priming Game plan is to absolutely barricade any movement of the opponent by building a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s chips will either get hit, or result a damaged position if she at all attempts to escape the wall. The ambush of the prime can be setup anywhere between point 2 and point 11 in your game board. As soon as you have successfully built the prime to prevent the movement of your opponent, your competitor doesn’t even get to toss the dice, that means you shift your pieces and roll the dice yet again. You’ll win the game for sure.
The Back Game Plan
The aims of the Back Game technique and the Blocking Game technique are similar – to harm your opponent’s positions hoping to boost your chances of succeeding, however the Back Game tactic utilizes alternate tactics to do that. The Back Game strategy is commonly employed when you are far behind your opponent. To compete in Backgammon with this strategy, you need to hold 2 or more points in table, and to hit a blot (a single piece) late in the game. This technique is more complex than others to employ in Backgammon because it requires careful movement of your pieces and how the checkers are moved is partly the outcome of the dice roll.
