The Essential Facts of Backgammon Game Plans – Part Two

As we have dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a casino game of talent and luck. The goal is to move your checkers safely around the board to your inside board while at the same time your opposition moves their pieces toward their home board in the opposing direction. With opposing player checkers heading in opposing directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for particular techniques at specific instances. Here are the two final Backgammon techniques to complete your game.

The Priming Game Strategy

If the aim of the blocking plan is to slow down the opponent to shift his chips, the Priming Game strategy is to completely block any movement of the opposing player by creating a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s checkers will either get hit, or end up in a battered position if she at all attempts to escape the wall. The ambush of the prime can be established anyplace between point two and point 11 in your board. After you’ve successfully assembled the prime to prevent the activity of your opponent, the competitor doesn’t even get a chance to roll the dice, that means you shift your checkers and roll the dice yet again. You’ll win the game for sure.

The Back Game Strategy

The aims of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game plan are very similar – to harm your opponent’s positions hoping to boost your chances of succeeding, however the Back Game plan uses seperate techniques to do that. The Back Game tactic is often employed when you’re far behind your opponent. To compete in Backgammon with this technique, you have to hold 2 or more points in table, and to hit a blot (a single checker) late in the game. This technique is more difficult than others to use in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your pieces and how the checkers are relocated is partially the result of the dice toss.
