As we dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a casino game of talent and pure luck. The aim is to shift your pieces safely around the game board to your inside board while at the same time your opposition moves their checkers toward their home board in the opposite direction. With opposing player chips moving in opposite directions there is going to be conflict and the need for particular techniques at specific instances. Here are the last 2 Backgammon strategies to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Tactic
If the aim of the blocking strategy is to slow down the opponent to shift her checkers, the Priming Game plan is to completely stop any activity of the opposing player by assembling a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s chips will either get bumped, or end up in a damaged position if she at all tries to escape the wall. The trap of the prime can be setup anyplace between point two and point eleven in your game board. After you have successfully assembled the prime to stop the movement of your competitor, your competitor does not even get a chance to roll the dice, that means you move your pieces and toss the dice again. You will be a winner for sure.
The Back Game Tactic
The objectives of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game tactic are very similar – to hurt your opponent’s positions hoping to boost your odds of winning, however the Back Game tactic relies on seperate techniques to achieve that. The Back Game technique is frequently used when you’re far behind your competitor. To compete in Backgammon with this tactic, you have to hold 2 or more points in table, and to hit a blot (a single piece) late in the game. This plan is more complex than others to employ in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your chips and how the chips are moved is partially the outcome of the dice roll.
