The Essential Details of Backgammon Strategies – Part Two
As we have dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a game of ability and pure luck. The aim is to move your checkers carefully around the game board to your inner board while at the same time your opponent shifts their checkers toward their home board in the opposite direction. With opposing player pieces moving in opposite directions there is bound to be conflict and the requirement for specific techniques at particular times. Here are the last 2 Backgammon plans to complete your game.
The Priming Game Tactic
If the purpose of the blocking strategy is to hamper the opponents ability to move her chips, the Priming Game tactic is to completely barricade any activity of the opposing player by building a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s chips will either get bumped, or end up in a battered position if he at all attempts to leave the wall. The trap of the prime can be setup anyplace between point 2 and point 11 in your game board. After you’ve successfully constructed the prime to stop the movement of the opponent, the opponent doesn’t even get a chance to roll the dice, that means you move your chips and toss the dice again. You will win the game for sure.
The Back Game Strategy
The goals of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game plan are very similar – to harm your opponent’s positions in hope to boost your chances of succeeding, but the Back Game plan utilizes different techniques to achieve that. The Back Game tactic is generally employed when you’re far behind your opponent. To participate in Backgammon with this tactic, 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 use in Backgammon seeing as it requires careful movement of your pieces and how the pieces are moved is partly the outcome of the dice toss.
