As we dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a casino game of skill and good luck. The aim is to shift your checkers carefully around the board to your inside board while at the same time your opposition shifts their pieces toward their home board in the opposing direction. With opposing player pieces shifting in opposing directions there is bound to be conflict and the requirement for specific tactics at specific times. Here are the last 2 Backgammon tactics to finish off your game.

The Priming Game Strategy

If the purpose of the blocking tactic is to hamper the opponents ability to shift their 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 opponent’s checkers will either get hit, or result a bad position if he/she ever attempts to leave the wall. The ambush of the prime can be established anyplace between point 2 and point 11 in your board. As soon as you’ve successfully constructed the prime to stop the movement of the opponent, the competitor doesn’t even get a chance to toss the dice, that means you shift your chips and toss the dice yet again. You’ll be a winner for sure.

The Back Game Technique

The objectives of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game strategy are very similar – to harm your opponent’s positions with hope to boost your chances of succeeding, however the Back Game strategy utilizes alternate tactics to achieve that. The Back Game tactic is frequently employed when you’re far behind your competitor. To participate in Backgammon with this strategy, you have to hold two or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This tactic is more difficult than others to employ in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your chips and how the chips are moved is partly the result of the dice roll.
