As we have dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a casino game of ability and good luck. The aim is to move your pieces safely around the board to your home board and at the same time your opposition moves their chips toward their inner board in the opposite direction. With opposing player checkers heading in opposite directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for particular techniques at specific times. Here are the last 2 Backgammon techniques to round out your game.
The Priming Game Strategy
If the aim of the blocking tactic is to slow down the opponent to move their checkers, the Priming Game tactic is to absolutely stop any activity of the opponent by building a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s chips will either get bumped, or result a bad position if he/she ever tries to leave the wall. The trap of the prime can be established anywhere between point two and point eleven in your board. Once you have successfully built the prime to prevent the activity of the opponent, the opponent does not even get a chance to roll the dice, that means you shift your pieces and roll the dice yet again. You will win the game for sure.
The Back Game Tactic
The objectives of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game tactic are similar – to hinder your opponent’s positions with hope to improve your chances of winning, but the Back Game technique uses seperate techniques to do that. The Back Game tactic is generally utilized when you’re far behind your competitor. To compete in Backgammon with this technique, you need to hold 2 or more points in table, and to hit a blot (a single piece) late in the game. This technique is more challenging than others to play in Backgammon because it requires careful movement of your checkers and how the checkers are moved is partially the outcome of the dice toss.
