The Essential Basics of Backgammon Game Plans – Part Two
As we dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a casino game of ability and luck. The goal is to move your chips safely around the game board to your inside board while at the same time your opponent shifts their chips toward their home board in the opposite direction. With competing player checkers heading in opposing directions there is going to be conflict and the need for specific techniques at specific times. Here are the last two Backgammon plans to complete your game.
The Priming Game Tactic
If the goal of the blocking strategy is to slow down the opponent to move her chips, the Priming Game strategy is to completely block any movement of the opposing player by building a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s pieces will either get hit, or end up in a battered 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 game board. After you’ve successfully assembled the prime to block the activity of the opponent, the opponent does not even get to roll the dice, that means you move your chips and toss the dice again. You’ll be a winner for sure.
The Back Game Plan
The aims of the Back Game strategy and the Blocking Game technique are similar – to hurt your opponent’s positions with hope to improve your odds of winning, but the Back Game plan utilizes different techniques to do that. The Back Game strategy is frequently employed when you’re far behind your competitor. To play Backgammon with this technique, you need to hold 2 or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This plan is more challenging than others to play in Backgammon seeing as it needs careful movement of your pieces and how the checkers are relocated is partly the result of the dice roll.
