As we have dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a casino game of ability and pure luck. The goal is to move your pieces carefully around the game board to your inside board and at the same time your opposing player moves their checkers toward their home board in the opposing direction. With competing player pieces heading in opposing directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for particular techniques at particular instances. Here are the last 2 Backgammon plans to complete your game.
The Priming Game Tactic
If the purpose of the blocking strategy is to slow down the opponent to move their checkers, the Priming Game strategy is to absolutely barricade any activity of the opponent by constructing a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s chips will either get bumped, or result a bad position if he/she at all attempts to escape the wall. The ambush of the prime can be built anywhere between point two and point 11 in your game board. As soon as you have successfully constructed the prime to block the movement of the opponent, your opponent doesn’t even get to roll the dice, and you move your checkers and roll the dice yet again. You’ll win the game for sure.
The Back Game Plan
The aims of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game strategy are very similar – to hurt your opponent’s positions in hope to improve your chances of succeeding, however the Back Game technique utilizes alternate techniques to achieve that. The Back Game tactic is commonly used when you are far behind your opponent. To compete in Backgammon with this technique, you need to hold 2 or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This strategy is more challenging than others to use in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your chips and how the chips are moved is partially the result of the dice roll.
