Enjoying backgammon could be exciting, especially if you understand how to win by playing properly. But every now and then a pointer or two might assist you even more and develop you into a better player.
One of the greatest game plans to win is to lock your opponent in. It’ll prevent them from advancing their checkers from your home board. This must be done early in the game to keep your competitors two pieces in your home board. So you have to move your checkers to points seven, 5, and four as swiftly as possible and even 2 and 3 if achievable. Maintain your point of 6 with the 6 checkers as it is. This will guarantee that your opponent can not get out of your home board and help your odds of locking them in to come out on top.
By locking your competitor in, they will be praying for double 6’s once all other options have been made to get those 2 pieces out of your home board. If doubles aren’t rolled, your opponent will be compelled to move one checker at a time, as long as they get a six or better, and leave one checker vulnerable behind. Of course while veering off your own pieces, make sure you do not leave one abandoned where your opponent can send you off the board to go through their home board.
When in doubt, hit. This can assist you in winning largely because once your opponent is hit, that piece is the piece they need to move before they can do anything else in the game. So if you hit them multiple times, they’ll have to return many checkers back to the board and get around your checkers to win. Be certain you do not hit where it will make you open to getting hit yourself. Except of course when will be advantageous to you, as in early on in the game when your opposition won’t have you barricaded in.
Landing a hit when you have a barricade started can also be good because once you get a few points barricaded, your opponent will have a difficult time getting their checkers away from your home board and crushing you. It’s even possible to hit them numerous times and get your barricade ready. That way you will be able to lock them from returning to the game and even having a chance at defeating you.
These 2 pointers aren’t the only way to succeed, but they are great ideas for novices to grow into better enthusiasts. So when you conquer these, being victorious most of the time certainly won’t appear to be such a complex thing to do.
