As we dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a game of skill and pure luck. The aim is to move your pieces safely around the board to your inside board while at the same time your opposing player shifts their chips toward their home board in the opposing direction. With competing player chips heading in opposite directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for specific strategies at specific instances. Here are the two final Backgammon strategies to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Plan
If the aim of the blocking tactic is to slow down the opponent to move her pieces, the Priming Game tactic is to completely block any activity of the opposing player by constructing a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s pieces will either get hit, or result a battered position if he at all tries to escape the wall. The ambush of the prime can be built anywhere between point two and point eleven in your game board. After you’ve successfully assembled the prime to block the activity of the opponent, your opponent doesn’t even get a chance to toss the dice, that means you move your checkers and toss the dice again. You will be a winner for sure.
The Back Game Technique
The aims of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game technique are similar – to hurt your competitor’s positions in hope to boost your odds of succeeding, however the Back Game strategy uses alternate techniques to achieve that. The Back Game strategy is commonly utilized when you’re far behind your competitor. To participate in Backgammon with this strategy, you need to hold 2 or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This plan is more difficult than others to use in Backgammon because it requires careful movement of your pieces and how the checkers are moved is partly the result of the dice roll.
