As we dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a casino game of talent and good luck. The goal is to move your pieces carefully around the board to your home board while at the same time your opposing player moves their checkers toward their inside board in the opposing direction. With competing player pieces heading in opposing directions there is bound to be conflict and the need for particular tactics at specific instances. Here are the last 2 Backgammon plans to round out your game.
The Priming Game Strategy
If the goal of the blocking plan is to hamper the opponents ability to shift his checkers, the Priming Game plan is to completely stop any movement of the opposing player by constructing a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s pieces will either get hit, or result a bad position if he/she at all tries to escape the wall. The ambush of the prime can be setup anyplace between point 2 and point eleven in your half of the board. After you have successfully built the prime to prevent the movement of the competitor, your competitor does not even get to toss the dice, that means you move your chips and toss the dice yet again. You will be a winner for sure.
The Back Game Strategy
The aims of the Back Game strategy and the Blocking Game technique are very similar – to hinder your opponent’s positions in hope to improve your chances of winning, but the Back Game plan uses different techniques to do that. The Back Game technique is generally used when you are far behind your opponent. To participate in Backgammon with this technique, you have to control two or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This plan is more complex than others to play in Backgammon because it requires careful movement of your pieces and how the pieces are moved is partly the outcome of the dice roll.
