As we dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a casino game of talent and luck. The goal is to move your checkers carefully around the game board to your inside board and at the same time your opponent moves their checkers toward their home board in the opposite direction. With opposing player chips heading in opposite directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for particular techniques at particular instances. Here are the last 2 Backgammon tactics to complete your game.
The Priming Game Plan
If the aim of the blocking tactic is to slow down the opponent to shift his chips, the Priming Game plan is to absolutely barricade any movement of the opposing player by building a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s checkers will either get hit, or end up in a damaged position if she at all tries to leave the wall. The ambush of the prime can be setup anyplace between point 2 and point 11 in your game board. As soon as you have successfully built the prime to prevent the movement of the opponent, the competitor doesn’t even get to toss the dice, and you shift your checkers and roll the dice yet again. You will win the game for sure.
The Back Game Plan
The objectives of the Back Game technique and the Blocking Game strategy are very similar – to harm your competitor’s positions hoping to boost your odds of succeeding, but the Back Game plan utilizes alternate techniques to do that. The Back Game technique is commonly used when you’re far behind your competitor. To compete in Backgammon with this plan, you have to control two or more points in table, and to hit a blot (a single checker) late in the game. This plan is more challenging than others to employ in Backgammon seeing as it needs careful movement of your pieces and how the chips are moved is partially the outcome of the dice roll.
