As we dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a game of talent and luck. The aim is to move your chips safely around the game board to your inside board and at the same time your opponent moves their chips toward their home board in the opposite direction. With opposing player pieces shifting in opposing directions there is bound to be conflict and the requirement for particular techniques at specific times. Here are the 2 final Backgammon tactics to complete your game.

The Priming Game Strategy

If the goal of the blocking strategy is to slow down the opponent to shift his checkers, the Priming Game strategy is to completely stop any movement of the opponent by assembling 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/she at all tries to leave the wall. The trap of the prime can be setup anyplace between point two and point 11 in your game board. As soon as you have successfully constructed the prime to prevent the activity of your opponent, the competitor does not even get to roll the dice, that means you shift your checkers and toss the dice yet again. You’ll be a winner for sure.

The Back Game Tactic

The objectives of the Back Game technique and the Blocking Game plan are very similar – to harm your opponent’s positions in hope to improve your odds of winning, however the Back Game plan utilizes seperate techniques to achieve that. The Back Game strategy is frequently utilized when you’re far behind your competitor. To participate in Backgammon with this strategy, you need to hold 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 use in Backgammon seeing as it requires careful movement of your pieces and how the chips are relocated is partly the result of the dice toss.
