As we dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a casino game of skill and good luck. The goal is to shift your checkers safely around the board to your home board while at the same time your opposition moves their chips toward their home board in the opposite direction. With opposing player pieces shifting in opposite directions there is going to be conflict and the need for particular strategies at specific instances. Here are the last two Backgammon strategies to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Tactic
If the goal of the blocking tactic is to slow down the opponent to shift his chips, the Priming Game tactic is to absolutely barricade any activity of the opposing player by constructing a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s pieces will either get hit, or end up in a battered position if she at all tries to escape the wall. The ambush of the prime can be established anyplace between point two and point 11 in your board. As soon as you’ve successfully assembled the prime to prevent the movement of your opponent, the opponent doesn’t even get to roll the dice, that means you move your chips and roll the dice again. You will win the game for sure.
The Back Game Plan
The aims of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game technique are similar – to hinder your competitor’s positions with hope to better your chances of winning, but the Back Game plan utilizes different techniques to achieve that. The Back Game plan is frequently utilized when you’re far behind your competitor. To participate in Backgammon with this plan, you have to hold 2 or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This plan is more difficult than others to use in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your chips and how the checkers are relocated is partly the outcome of the dice toss.
