As we have dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a casino game of talent and luck. The goal is to shift your pieces safely around the game board to your inner board and at the same time your opponent moves their pieces toward their home board in the opposite direction. With competing player chips heading in opposing directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for specific techniques at particular instances. Here are the last two Backgammon strategies to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Tactic
If the goal of the blocking plan is to slow down the opponent to move her pieces, the Priming Game strategy is to completely barricade any movement of the opposing player by building a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s checkers will either get bumped, or end up in a damaged position if he/she at all attempts to escape the wall. The ambush of the prime can be setup anyplace between point two and point 11 in your board. After you’ve successfully constructed the prime to stop the movement of the competitor, the opponent does not even get to roll the dice, that means you move your pieces and roll the dice again. You’ll win the game for sure.
The Back Game Strategy
The goals of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game technique are similar – to hurt your competitor’s positions with hope to boost your odds of succeeding, however the Back Game plan relies on seperate techniques to do that. The Back Game plan is generally used when you’re far behind your competitor. To participate in Backgammon with this technique, you need to hold two or more points in table, and to hit a blot (a single piece) late in the game. This tactic is more complex than others to play in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your pieces and how the chips are moved is partly the result of the dice roll.
