As we dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a casino game of skill and good luck. The aim is to shift your chips carefully around the game board to your inside board and at the same time your opponent moves their checkers toward their inside board in the opposite direction. With opposing player pieces moving in opposite directions there is bound to be conflict and the need for particular tactics 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 plan is to slow down the opponent to shift their checkers, the Priming Game strategy is to completely stop any movement of the opposing player by assembling a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s checkers will either get hit, or result a battered position if he at all tries to escape the wall. The trap of the prime can be setup anywhere between point 2 and point 11 in your board. As soon as you’ve successfully built the prime to prevent the movement of the competitor, your opponent does not even get a chance to roll the dice, and you move your checkers and toss the dice again. You will be a winner for sure.
The Back Game Plan
The goals of the Back Game strategy and the Blocking Game technique are similar – to harm your opponent’s positions hoping to better your chances of succeeding, but the Back Game technique relies on seperate techniques to do that. The Back Game plan is frequently utilized when you are far behind your competitor. To participate in Backgammon with this strategy, you have to hold 2 or more points in table, and to hit a blot (a single checker) late in the game. This plan is more complex than others to play in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your checkers and how the checkers are relocated is partially the outcome of the dice toss.
