As we have dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a casino game of skill and good luck. The aim is to shift your pieces safely around the board to your home board while at the same time your opposing player moves their chips toward their inside board in the opposing direction. With opposing player pieces shifting in opposing directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for particular strategies at specific times. Here are the last two Backgammon plans to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Plan
If the aim of the blocking plan is to slow down the opponent to shift his checkers, the Priming Game tactic is to absolutely block any movement of the opposing player by creating a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s chips will either get hit, or end up in a bad position if she at all tries to escape the wall. The trap of the prime can be setup anyplace between point two and point eleven in your half of the board. After you have successfully built the prime to prevent the activity of your competitor, the competitor doesn’t even get to toss the dice, and you shift your checkers and roll the dice again. You’ll win the game for sure.
The Back Game Technique
The objectives of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game tactic are very similar – to hinder your opponent’s positions with hope to improve your odds of succeeding, however the Back Game technique utilizes alternate tactics to do that. The Back Game technique is frequently utilized when you are far behind your opponent. To participate in Backgammon with this plan, you need to control two or more points in table, and to hit a blot (a single piece) late in the game. This technique is more complex than others to employ in Backgammon seeing as it requires careful movement of your pieces and how the pieces are moved is partly the result of the dice roll.
