As we dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a game of talent 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 opposing player moves their checkers toward their inner board in the opposing direction. With opposing player pieces moving in opposing directions there is bound to be conflict and the requirement for specific techniques at particular times. Here are the last 2 Backgammon tactics to complete your game.
The Priming Game Strategy
If the goal of the blocking plan is to hamper the opponents ability to move his checkers, the Priming Game plan is to absolutely barricade any activity of the opponent by creating a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s chips will either get bumped, or result a battered position if he/she at all tries to leave the wall. The trap of the prime can be established anywhere between point two and point eleven in your game board. As soon as you’ve successfully built the prime to block the movement of your competitor, the competitor doesn’t even get a chance to roll the dice, that means you shift your checkers and roll the dice again. You’ll be a winner for sure.
The Back Game Technique
The objectives of the Back Game technique and the Blocking Game strategy are very similar – to hinder your opponent’s positions hoping to better your odds of winning, but the Back Game plan relies on different techniques to do that. The Back Game tactic is frequently used 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 complex than others to play in Backgammon seeing as it needs careful movement of your chips and how the pieces are moved is partially the outcome of the dice roll.
