The Essential Basics of Backgammon Game Plans – Part Two
As we dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a casino game of talent and good luck. The goal is to shift your pieces carefully around the game board to your inner board while at the same time your opposing player shifts their checkers toward their inner board in the opposing direction. With competing player pieces heading in opposite directions there is going to be conflict and the need for particular tactics at specific instances. Here are the last two Backgammon techniques to complete your game.
The Priming Game Strategy
If the purpose of the blocking strategy is to hamper the opponents ability to shift his chips, the Priming Game plan is to completely block any movement of the opposing player by assembling a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s checkers will either get bumped, or end up in a damaged position if she at all tries to leave the wall. The trap of the prime can be established anyplace between point 2 and point eleven in your game board. Once you have successfully built the prime to prevent the movement of your opponent, the opponent doesn’t even get to toss the dice, that means you move your checkers and roll the dice yet again. You will be a winner for sure.
The Back Game Strategy
The aims of the Back Game strategy and the Blocking Game tactic are very similar – to hurt your competitor’s positions hoping to better your odds of succeeding, however the Back Game tactic uses seperate tactics to do that. The Back Game technique is commonly used when you’re far behind your opponent. To compete 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 strategy is more challenging than others to play in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your pieces and how the checkers are relocated is partly the outcome of the dice toss.
