As we have dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a casino game of skill and luck. The aim is to move your pieces safely around the board to your inner board while at the same time your opposition shifts their pieces toward their inside board in the opposite direction. With opposing player checkers moving in opposing directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for particular tactics at particular instances. Here are the 2 final Backgammon plans to finish off your game.

The Priming Game Plan

If the purpose of the blocking tactic is to slow down the opponent to move his checkers, the Priming Game plan is to completely stop any activity of the opposing player by creating a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s chips will either get hit, or end up in a battered position if she ever tries to leave the wall. The trap of the prime can be built anyplace between point 2 and point eleven in your game board. After you’ve successfully assembled the prime to prevent the movement of your competitor, your opponent doesn’t even get a chance to roll the dice, that means you move your checkers and toss the dice again. You’ll win the game for sure.

The Back Game Plan

The aims of the Back Game plan and the Blocking Game strategy are similar – to hurt your opponent’s positions in hope to improve your odds of winning, however the Back Game technique utilizes alternate techniques to do that. The Back Game plan is commonly utilized when you are far behind your opponent. To participate in Backgammon with this strategy, you have to hold two or more points in table, and to hit a blot (a single piece) late in the game. This technique is more difficult than others to employ in Backgammon because it requires careful movement of your pieces and how the pieces are moved is partially the outcome of the dice toss.
