As we dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a casino game of ability and good luck. The aim is to move your chips carefully around the board to your inside board while at the same time your opposition shifts their pieces toward their inside board in the opposite direction. With opposing player chips heading in opposing directions there is going to be conflict and the need for specific strategies at particular times. Here are the last two Backgammon techniques to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Strategy
If the purpose of the blocking plan is to slow down the opponent to shift her checkers, the Priming Game strategy is to absolutely barricade any movement of the opposing player by assembling a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s chips will either get hit, or end up in a battered position if he ever attempts to escape the wall. The trap of the prime can be established anywhere between point two and point eleven in your half of the board. After you have successfully built the prime to block the movement of the opponent, the opponent does not even get a chance to roll the dice, and you move your checkers and toss the dice again. You will be a winner for sure.
The Back Game Technique
The aims of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game technique are similar – to harm your opponent’s positions with hope to boost your chances of succeeding, however the Back Game strategy uses seperate techniques to achieve that. The Back Game tactic is frequently used when you’re far behind your competitor. To participate in Backgammon with this plan, you need to hold 2 or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This technique is more difficult than others to employ in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your pieces and how the pieces are relocated is partly the result of the dice toss.
