As we dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a game of talent and good luck. The aim is to move your checkers safely around the board to your home board and at the same time your opposing player moves their pieces toward their home board in the opposite direction. With competing player checkers moving in opposite directions there is bound to be conflict and the requirement for specific strategies at particular times. Here are the 2 final Backgammon plans to round out your game.
The Priming Game Plan
If the purpose of the blocking strategy is to slow down the opponent to shift their pieces, the Priming Game plan is to absolutely barricade any activity of the opposing player by assembling a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s checkers will either get bumped, or result a damaged position if he/she ever tries to leave the wall. The trap of the prime can be built anyplace between point 2 and point 11 in your board. Once you’ve successfully constructed the prime to stop the activity of your competitor, your competitor doesn’t even get a chance to toss the dice, that means you shift your checkers and toss the dice again. You will win the game for sure.
The Back Game Strategy
The aims of the Back Game plan and the Blocking Game plan are similar – to hinder your opponent’s positions with hope to boost your odds of winning, however the Back Game plan utilizes different techniques to achieve that. The Back Game plan is commonly employed when you’re far behind your opponent. To participate in Backgammon with this technique, you have to hold two or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This strategy is more complex than others to employ in Backgammon seeing as it requires careful movement of your chips and how the pieces are relocated is partly the outcome of the dice roll.
