As we have dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a game of talent and good luck. The aim is to shift your pieces carefully around the board to your inside board and at the same time your opposition shifts their chips toward their home board in the opposite direction. With competing player pieces moving in opposing directions there is bound to be conflict and the requirement for specific strategies at specific times. Here are the last 2 Backgammon strategies to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Strategy
If the purpose of the blocking strategy is to hamper the opponents ability to shift their chips, the Priming Game plan is to absolutely stop any movement of the opposing player by creating a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s pieces will either get hit, or result a bad position if he at all attempts to escape the wall. The ambush of the prime can be built anyplace between point two and point 11 in your board. After you’ve successfully assembled the prime to prevent the movement of your competitor, the opponent does not even get to roll the dice, and you move your checkers and toss the dice again. You’ll win the game for sure.
The Back Game Tactic
The goals of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game technique are very similar – to hurt your competitor’s positions with hope to better your odds of succeeding, but the Back Game tactic utilizes seperate tactics to achieve that. The Back Game strategy is often utilized when you’re far behind your opponent. To compete in Backgammon with this plan, you have to hold 2 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 moved is partially the outcome of the dice toss.
