As we dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a casino game of skill and luck. The goal is to shift your pieces safely around the board to your inner board and at the same time your opponent moves their pieces toward their home board in the opposing direction. With opposing player chips heading in opposite directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for particular techniques at specific times. Here are the two final Backgammon plans to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Plan
If the purpose of the blocking plan is to slow down the opponent to move her pieces, the Priming Game plan is to completely block any movement of the opposing player by building a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s chips will either get bumped, or end up in a damaged position if he/she at all attempts to escape the wall. The trap of the prime can be established anywhere between point 2 and point 11 in your game board. As soon as you have successfully built the prime to prevent the activity of your competitor, your opponent doesn’t even get to toss the dice, and you shift your chips and toss the dice yet again. You’ll be a winner for sure.
The Back Game Tactic
The goals of the Back Game plan and the Blocking Game plan are similar – to hinder your competitor’s positions hoping to boost your odds of succeeding, however the Back Game plan uses alternate techniques to achieve that. The Back Game plan is frequently used when you’re far behind your competitor. To play 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 use in Backgammon seeing as it needs careful movement of your checkers and how the checkers are relocated is partially the result of the dice toss.
