As we have dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a casino game of skill and pure luck. The goal is to move your chips safely around the game board to your inner board while at the same time your opposition shifts their chips toward their home board in the opposing direction. With opposing player pieces shifting in opposite directions there is bound to be conflict and the requirement for specific tactics at specific instances. Here are the two final Backgammon tactics to complete your game.
The Priming Game Tactic
If the aim of the blocking tactic is to slow down the opponent to move their pieces, the Priming Game tactic is to absolutely stop any movement of the opposing player by creating a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s chips will either get hit, or end up in a damaged position if he/she ever tries to escape the wall. The ambush of the prime can be built anyplace between point two and point eleven in your half of the board. After you’ve successfully assembled the prime to prevent the movement of the opponent, the competitor does not even get a chance to roll the dice, that means you shift your chips and roll the dice yet again. You will be a winner for sure.
The Back Game Plan
The objectives of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game strategy are similar – to hinder your opponent’s positions in hope to improve your chances of winning, but the Back Game plan utilizes seperate techniques to do that. The Back Game technique is generally used when you are far behind your competitor. To play Backgammon with this tactic, you need to hold two or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This tactic is more complex than others to employ in Backgammon seeing as it needs careful movement of your pieces and how the checkers are moved is partially the outcome of the dice roll.
