The Essential Basics of Backgammon Strategies – Part Two
As we dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a casino game of skill and luck. The aim is to move your chips carefully around the board to your inside board while at the same time your opposing player moves their chips toward their inside board in the opposite direction. With opposing player chips heading in opposite directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for specific techniques at specific times. Here are the last 2 Backgammon techniques to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Tactic
If the aim of the blocking plan is to hamper the opponents ability to move his checkers, the Priming Game tactic is to absolutely stop any activity of the opposing player by building a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s chips will either get hit, or result a damaged position if he at all tries to escape the wall. The trap of the prime can be established anyplace between point 2 and point eleven in your board. Once you’ve successfully constructed the prime to prevent the activity of your competitor, your competitor doesn’t even get a chance to roll the dice, that means you move your pieces and roll the dice yet again. You will win the game for sure.
The Back Game Plan
The objectives of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game plan are similar – to hinder your opponent’s positions hoping to boost your odds of winning, but the Back Game technique uses different techniques to do that. The Back Game tactic is commonly employed when you are far behind your competitor. To play Backgammon with this tactic, you have to control two or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This technique is more difficult than others to use in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your chips and how the pieces are relocated is partly the result of the dice roll.
