As we dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a game of skill and luck. The aim is to move your chips safely around the game board to your inside board while at the same time your opposition shifts their checkers toward their inner board in the opposing direction. With opposing player checkers shifting in opposite directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for specific tactics at specific instances. Here are the two final Backgammon plans to finish off your game.

The Priming Game Strategy

If the aim of the blocking strategy is to hamper the opponents ability to shift his checkers, the Priming Game strategy is to completely barricade any activity of the opposing player by constructing a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s pieces will either get bumped, or result a damaged position if she ever attempts to escape the wall. The ambush of the prime can be setup anywhere between point two and point 11 in your game board. After you have successfully built the prime to prevent the movement of your opponent, the competitor does not even get a chance to roll the dice, that means you shift your chips and toss the dice yet again. You’ll win the game for sure.

The Back Game Strategy

The aims of the Back Game strategy and the Blocking Game tactic are very similar – to harm your opponent’s positions in hope to improve your chances of winning, however the Back Game technique relies on different techniques to achieve that. The Back Game technique is generally utilized when you’re far behind your competitor. To participate in Backgammon with this technique, you need to hold 2 or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This tactic is more complex than others to play in Backgammon seeing as it needs careful movement of your pieces and how the chips are moved is partly the result of the dice toss.
