  • Backgammon - Three Main Plans

    In very simple terms, there are three chief game plans used. You must be able to hop between game plans almost instantly as the action of the match unfolds.

    The Blockade

    This is composed of assembling a 6-thick wall of checkers, or at a minimum as deep as you might achieve, to barricade in your opponent’s checkers that are located on your 1-point. This is deemed to be the most acceptable procedure at the begining of the game. You can build the wall anywhere within your eleven-point and your 2-point and then shift it into your home board as the game advances.

    The Blitz

    This is composed of locking your home board as quickly as possible while keeping your opponent on the bar. For example, if your opposer rolls an early 2 and shifts one piece from your one-point to your 3-point and you then toss a 5-5, you are able to play 6/1 six/one eight/three 8/3. Your opponent is now in big-time calamity seeing that they have 2 checkers on the bar and you have locked half your home board!

    The Backgame

    This strategy is where you have two or higher anchors in your competitor’s inner board. (An anchor is a position filled by at a minimum two of your checkers.) It would be played when you are extremely behind as this strategy much improves your chances. The strongest places for anchors are near your opponent’s lower points and also on abutting points or with one point in between. Timing is important for a competent backgame: after all, there’s no point having 2 nice anchors and a complete wall in your own home board if you are then forced to break apart this right away, while your opponent is getting their checkers home, owing to the fact that you do not have any other spare checkers to shift! In this situation, it is better to have pieces on the bar so that you might maintain your position up till your opponent gives you an opportunity to hit, so it can be a wonderful idea to attempt and get your challenger to hit them in this case!

    The aim of a Backgammon match is to shift your chips around the Backgammon board and bear those pieces from the game board faster than your challenger who works just as hard to attempt the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Succeeding in a match of Backgammon requires both strategy and luck. Just how far you will be able to shift your pieces is up to the numbers from rolling a pair of dice, and how you move your chips are determined by your overall playing plans. Players use different tactics in the different stages of a game depending on your positions and opponent’s.

    The Running Game Technique

    The aim of the Running Game strategy is to lure all your checkers into your inside board and bear them off as quickly as you can. This technique concentrates on the pace of shifting your checkers with no efforts to hit or barricade your opponent’s checkers. The ideal scenario to use this plan is when you think you can move your own chips faster than the opponent does: when 1) you have a fewer chips on the game board; 2) all your chips have moved beyond your opponent’s pieces; or 3) your opposing player doesn’t employ the hitting or blocking tactic.

    The Blocking Game Plan

    The primary goal of the blocking tactic, by its title, is to stop the competitor’s checkers, temporarily, not worrying about shifting your pieces quickly. As soon as you’ve established the blockade for the opponent’s movement with a few pieces, you can shift your other checkers quickly off the board. You should also have a good plan when to withdraw and move the checkers that you used for the blockade. The game becomes intriguing when the opponent uses the same blocking tactic.

With opposing player chips moving in opposite directions there is bound to be conflict and the need for particular tactics at particular times. Here are the 2 final Backgammon techniques to finish off your game.

    The Priming Game Plan

    If the goal of the blocking plan is to hamper the opponents ability to move his pieces, the Priming Game strategy is to completely stop any activity of the opposing player by building a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s checkers will either get bumped, or end up in a damaged position if he/she at all attempts to escape the wall. The trap of the prime can be built anywhere between point two and point 11 in your half of the board. After you’ve successfully assembled the prime to stop the activity of your opponent, your competitor doesn’t even get to toss the dice, that means you move your checkers and roll the dice yet again. You will win the game for sure.

    The Back Game Strategy

    The aims of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game plan are similar – to hurt your competitor’s positions hoping to better your chances of winning, however the Back Game strategy relies on seperate techniques to achieve that. The Back Game tactic is often used when you are far behind your opponent. To compete in Backgammon with this technique, you need to control 2 or more points in table, and to hit a blot (a single piece) late in the game. This technique is more difficult than others to employ in Backgammon seeing as it requires careful movement of your checkers and how the checkers are relocated is partly the result of the dice roll.

    In exceptionally general terms, there are 3 chief tactics used. You need to be agile enough to hop between techniques almost instantly as the course of the match unfolds.

    The Blockade

    This is composed of creating a 6-deep wall of pieces, or at least as thick as you might manage, to barricade in the opponent’s checkers that are located on your 1-point.

    The Blitz

    This is composed of locking your home board as fast as possible while keeping your challenger on the bar. For example, if your opponent tosses an early 2 and moves one checker from your one-point to your three-point and you then toss a five-five, you can play 6/1 six/one 8/3 eight/three. Your opponent is then in big-time calamity because they have two checkers on the bar and you have locked half your inner board!

    The Backgame

It needs to be played when you are significantly behind as this strategy much improves your opportunities. The strongest locations for anchors are towards your opponent’s smaller points and either on abutting points or with a single point in between. Timing is integral for a powerful backgame: after all, there’s no reason having two nice anchors and a solid wall in your own home board if you are then required to break up this right away, while your challenger is moving their pieces home, owing to the fact that you don’t have any other additional pieces to move! In this case, it’s more favorable to have pieces on the bar so that you might maintain your position up until your competitor gives you a chance to hit, so it may be a wonderful idea to try and get your challenger to get them in this case!
