The Essential Facts of Backgammon Game Plans – Part 2
As we have dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a game of ability and luck. The aim is to move your chips safely around the game board to your inner board and at the same time your opposition shifts their chips toward their inner board in the opposite direction. With competing player chips moving in opposite directions there is bound to be conflict and the requirement for specific techniques at particular times. Here are the two final Backgammon strategies to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Strategy
If the aim of the blocking tactic is to slow down the opponent to move their chips, the Priming Game tactic is to absolutely block any movement of the opposing player by constructing a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s pieces will either get hit, or end up in a bad position if she ever tries to leave the wall. The ambush of the prime can be built anyplace between point 2 and point eleven in your half of the board. As soon as you have successfully built the prime to block the movement of your opponent, the competitor does not even get to roll the dice, that means you move your checkers and toss the dice again. You will win the game for sure.
The Back Game Tactic
The aims of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game strategy are very similar – to harm your opponent’s positions with hope to boost your odds of succeeding, however the Back Game strategy utilizes seperate techniques to do that. The Back Game strategy is frequently utilized when you are 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 (a single piece) late in the game. This technique is more complex than others to use in Backgammon because it requires careful movement of your chips and how the pieces are moved is partly the result of the dice roll.
