The Essential Basics of Backgammon Strategies – Part Two
As we have dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a casino game of skill and luck. The goal is to shift your pieces carefully around the board to your inside board while at the same time your opponent moves their chips toward their inner board in the opposite direction. With competing player checkers shifting in opposing directions there is going to be conflict and the need for particular strategies at specific instances. Here are the last two Backgammon techniques to complete your game.
The Priming Game Strategy
If the purpose of the blocking plan is to hamper the opponents ability to shift his pieces, the Priming Game tactic is to absolutely barricade any movement of the opponent by creating a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s pieces will either get hit, or end up in a bad position if he at all tries to escape the wall. The ambush of the prime can be established anywhere between point 2 and point eleven in your half of the board. After you’ve successfully constructed the prime to stop the activity of your opponent, the opponent doesn’t even get to roll the dice, that means 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 technique and the Blocking Game plan are very similar – to hurt your opponent’s positions hoping to boost your odds of succeeding, however the Back Game plan relies on seperate techniques to do that. The Back Game strategy is commonly utilized when you are far behind your opponent. To play Backgammon with this technique, you need to control two or more points in table, and to hit a blot (a single piece) late in the game. This strategy is more difficult than others to employ in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your checkers and how the pieces are relocated is partly the outcome of the dice roll.
