As we have dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a casino game of ability and good luck. The aim is to move your pieces safely around the board to your home board and at the same time your opposing player moves their pieces toward their home board in the opposite direction. With opposing player chips shifting in opposing directions there is going to be conflict and the need for particular techniques at particular instances. Here are the two final Backgammon strategies to round out your game.
The Priming Game Tactic
If the purpose of the blocking strategy is to hamper the opponents ability to shift her chips, the Priming Game tactic is to completely stop any activity of the opposing player by constructing a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s chips will either get hit, or end up in a bad position if he/she ever attempts to escape the wall. The ambush of the prime can be setup anywhere between point two and point eleven in your half of the board. As soon as you’ve successfully constructed the prime to stop the movement of your competitor, your competitor doesn’t even get a chance to toss the dice, that means you move your chips and roll the dice yet again. You will win the game for sure.
The Back Game Strategy
The objectives of the Back Game technique and the Blocking Game strategy are similar – to hinder your opponent’s positions hoping to better your odds of succeeding, but the Back Game tactic uses seperate tactics to do that. The Back Game strategy is commonly utilized when you’re far behind your opponent. To participate in Backgammon with this technique, you have to control two or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This technique is more challenging than others to play in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your chips and how the checkers are relocated is partly the outcome of the dice roll.
