As we have dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a casino game of talent and pure luck. The aim is to move your pieces carefully around the board to your inside board while at the same time your opposition moves their checkers toward their home board in the opposing 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 2 final Backgammon tactics to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Plan
If the purpose of the blocking tactic is to slow down the opponent to move his checkers, the Priming Game tactic is to absolutely block any movement of the opponent by creating a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s chips will either get hit, or end up in a battered position if he/she ever attempts to escape the wall. The ambush of the prime can be established anyplace between point 2 and point 11 in your board. As soon as you’ve successfully constructed the prime to prevent the movement of your opponent, your opponent doesn’t even get a chance to toss the dice, and you shift your checkers and roll the dice again. You will win the game for sure.
The Back Game Tactic
The goals of the Back Game plan and the Blocking Game tactic are very similar – to hurt your opponent’s positions in hope to boost your odds of succeeding, but the Back Game strategy utilizes different tactics to achieve that. The Back Game tactic is frequently utilized when you’re far behind your opponent. To compete in Backgammon with this strategy, you need to control 2 or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This strategy is more challenging than others to play in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your checkers and how the pieces are moved is partially the outcome of the dice roll.
