The Essential Details of Backgammon Game Plans – Part Two
December 31st, 2018 by Princess

As we have dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a casino game of skill and luck. The aim is to shift your pieces carefully around the game board to your inside board while at the same time your opposition shifts their pieces toward their inner board in the opposing direction. With opposing player pieces heading in opposing directions there is going to be conflict and the need for specific tactics at specific instances. Here are the last 2 Backgammon tactics to complete your game.

The Priming Game Tactic

If the aim of the blocking plan is to slow down the opponent to move her chips, the Priming Game plan is to completely barricade any activity of the opposing player by constructing a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s checkers will either get bumped, or end up in a damaged position if he at all tries to leave the wall. The ambush of the prime can be established anywhere between point 2 and point 11 in your game board. After you’ve successfully built the prime to stop the activity of your competitor, your competitor doesn’t even get a chance to toss the dice, and you move your checkers and roll the dice yet again. You will win the game for sure.

The Back Game Technique

The aims of the Back Game strategy and the Blocking Game technique are very similar – to hinder your opponent’s positions hoping to better your odds of winning, however the Back Game plan uses different tactics to achieve that. The Back Game strategy is frequently utilized when you’re far behind your competitor. To participate in Backgammon with this technique, you have to control 2 or more points in table, and to hit a blot (a single piece) late in the game. This technique is more difficult than others to employ in Backgammon seeing as it needs careful movement of your pieces and how the checkers are relocated is partially the outcome of the dice roll.
