As we dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a casino game of ability and good luck. The aim is to move your pieces safely around the game board to your home board and at the same time your opponent shifts their chips toward their inside board in the opposing direction. With opposing player chips moving in opposing directions there is bound to be conflict and the requirement for specific techniques at particular times. Here are the 2 final Backgammon tactics to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Tactic
If the purpose of the blocking tactic is to hamper the opponents ability to move his checkers, the Priming Game strategy is to completely block any activity of the opposing player by building a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s chips will either get bumped, or result a battered position if he ever tries to escape the wall. The ambush of the prime can be established anywhere between point 2 and point eleven in your game board. After you have successfully assembled the prime to stop the movement of the competitor, your competitor doesn’t even get a chance to toss the dice, and you move your pieces and roll the dice again. You will be a winner for sure.
The Back Game Plan
The objectives of the Back Game technique and the Blocking Game strategy are similar – to hinder your competitor’s positions in hope to improve your chances of succeeding, however the Back Game technique utilizes different tactics to do that. The Back Game strategy is frequently employed when you’re far behind your opponent. To participate 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 tactic is more complex than others to play in Backgammon seeing as it requires careful movement of your pieces and how the chips are moved is partly the outcome of the dice roll.
