As we have dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a casino game of skill and luck. The goal is to shift your pieces safely around the board to your inner board and at the same time your opposing player shifts their checkers toward their home board in the opposing direction. With competing player chips moving in opposing directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for specific strategies at specific instances. Here are the 2 final Backgammon tactics to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Tactic
If the aim of the blocking tactic is to hamper the opponents ability to shift his chips, the Priming Game strategy is to absolutely stop any movement of the opponent by creating a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s checkers will either get hit, or end up in a battered position if he at all attempts to escape the wall. The trap of the prime can be established anywhere between point 2 and point eleven in your game board. After you’ve successfully constructed the prime to prevent the activity of your opponent, the opponent doesn’t even get a chance to roll the dice, and you move your checkers and roll the dice yet again. You’ll be a winner for sure.
The Back Game Plan
The goals of the Back Game plan and the Blocking Game strategy are similar – to hinder your competitor’s positions with hope to boost your chances of succeeding, however the Back Game strategy utilizes alternate techniques to do that. The Back Game tactic is frequently utilized when you are far behind your competitor. To participate in Backgammon with this plan, you need to control two or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This strategy is more difficult than others to play in Backgammon because it requires careful movement of your pieces and how the pieces are relocated is partially the outcome of the dice toss.
