As we have dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a casino game of ability and good luck. The goal is to move your checkers safely around the board to your inner board while at the same time your opposing player moves their checkers toward their home board in the opposite direction. With opposing player chips heading in opposite directions there is bound to be conflict and the requirement for particular tactics at particular times. Here are the 2 final Backgammon strategies to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Tactic
If the goal of the blocking plan is to hamper the opponents ability to shift his checkers, the Priming Game plan is to absolutely block any activity of the opposing player by creating a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s checkers will either get hit, or end up in a bad position if she ever attempts to leave the wall. The trap of the prime can be established anywhere between point two and point eleven in your board. Once you’ve successfully built the prime to stop the movement of the competitor, your competitor does not even get to roll the dice, that means you shift your chips and roll the dice again. You’ll be a winner for sure.
The Back Game Strategy
The objectives of the Back Game strategy and the Blocking Game strategy are similar – to hurt your competitor’s positions hoping to improve your odds of succeeding, however the Back Game technique relies on different techniques to do that. The Back Game technique is frequently used when you’re far behind your opponent. To play Backgammon with this strategy, you need to hold 2 or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This tactic is more complex than others to play in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your chips and how the chips are relocated is partly the result of the dice roll.
