As we have dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a game of skill and pure luck. The aim is to shift your chips carefully around the game board to your home board and at the same time your opponent moves their chips toward their inner board in the opposing direction. With competing player chips moving in opposite directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for particular techniques at particular times. Here are the 2 final Backgammon plans to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Strategy
If the goal of the blocking tactic is to slow down the opponent to move his chips, the Priming Game strategy is to completely stop any activity of the opponent by creating a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s checkers will either get bumped, or result a battered position if he/she at all tries to escape the wall. The trap of the prime can be established anyplace between point two and point 11 in your board. As soon as you have successfully assembled the prime to stop the movement of the opponent, the competitor does not even get to roll the dice, that means you move your checkers and toss the dice yet again. You’ll win the game for sure.
The Back Game Technique
The goals of the Back Game technique and the Blocking Game tactic are very similar – to hinder your opponent’s positions with hope to improve your odds of winning, however the Back Game plan utilizes seperate tactics to achieve that. The Back Game plan is generally utilized when you’re far behind your opponent. To compete in Backgammon with this strategy, you have to control two or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This plan is more difficult than others to play in Backgammon because it requires careful movement of your chips and how the chips are moved is partially the result of the dice roll.
