    [ English ]

    In astonishingly general terms, there are 3 basic plans employed. You need to be agile enough to hop between tactics quickly as the action of the match unfolds.

    The Blockade

    This involves assembling a 6-deep wall of checkers, or at a minimum as deep as you might manage, to lock in the opponent’s pieces that are located on your 1-point. This is considered to be the most acceptable tactic at the begining of the game. You can build the wall anyplace within your 11-point and your 2-point and then shuffle it into your home board as the match progresses.

    The Blitz

    This consists of closing your home board as quickly as as you can while keeping your challenger on the bar. For example, if your competitor rolls an early two and shifts one checker from your one-point to your three-point and you then toss a five-five, you are able to play six/one six/one 8/3 8/3. Your opponent is then in big-time dire straits considering that they have two checkers on the bar and you have locked half your inner board!

    The Backgame

    This plan is where you have two or more checkers in your opponent’s home board. (An anchor is a position occupied by at a minimum 2 of your pieces.) It needs to be played when you are extremely behind as it much improves your opportunities. The best locations for anchors are near your opponent’s smaller points and either on adjoining points or with a single point separating them. Timing is crucial for an effectual backgame: after all, there’s no reason having two nice anchors and a complete wall in your own inner board if you are then forced to dismantle this right away, while your opposer is moving their checkers home, owing to the fact that you do not have any other spare checkers to move! In this case, it’s more tolerable to have pieces on the bar so that you can preserve your position up till your opposer provides you a chance to hit, so it may be a wonderful idea to try and get your challenger to hit them in this case!

It must be played when you are extremely behind as it greatly improves your opportunities. The better places for anchor spots are close to your opponent’s smaller points and also on abutting points or with one point separating them. Timing is important for an effective backgame: besides, there is no reason having 2 nice anchors and a complete wall in your own home board if you are then required to dismantle this right away, while your competitor is getting their checkers home, considering that you do not have any other extra checkers to shift! In this case, it’s more favorable to have pieces on the bar so that you are able to maintain your position up till your challenger provides you a chance to hit, so it can be a good idea to attempt and get your opponent to hit them in this case!

    In extraordinarily simple terms, there are 3 general plans used. You need to be able to hop between game plans instantly as the course of the match unfolds.

    The Blockade

    This is comprised of creating a 6-thick wall of checkers, or at a minimum as thick as you are able to achieve, to barricade in your opponent’s pieces that are located on your 1-point.

    The Blitz

    This is composed of closing your home board as quick as as you can while keeping your competitor on the bar. e.g., if your opposer rolls an early 2 and shifts one checker from your 1-point to your 3-point and you then toss a 5-5, you are able to play 6/1 six/one 8/3 eight/three. Your competitor is then in serious calamity considering that they have 2 pieces on the bar and you have closed half your inside board!

    The Backgame

    This plan is where you have 2 or more anchors in your opponent’s home board. (An anchor is a position consisting of at least two of your pieces.)

Timing is essential for an effective backgame: at the end of the day, there is no point having 2 nice anchor spots and a complete wall in your own inner board if you are then required to break apart this straight away, while your competitor is moving their pieces home, owing to the fact that you do not have any other spare checkers to move! In this situation, it’s more tolerable to have pieces on the bar so that you can preserve your position until your opponent provides you an opportunity to hit, so it will be a wonderful idea to attempt and get your opponent to hit them in this case!

     
  • The Basics of Backgammon Tactics - Part 2

    Valentina 9:25 am on February 16, 2018 | 0 Permalink | Log in to leave a Comment

    As we dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a casino game of ability and pure luck. The aim is to shift your checkers carefully around the board to your inside board and at the same time your opponent shifts their pieces toward their inside board in the opposite direction. With competing player chips moving in opposing directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for particular techniques at specific times. Here are the last two Backgammon plans to finish off your game.

    The Priming Game Tactic

    If the goal of the blocking plan is to slow down the opponent to move their chips, the Priming Game plan is to completely barricade any activity of the opponent by assembling a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s checkers will either get bumped, or result a battered position if he/she ever attempts to escape the wall. The trap of the prime can be built anywhere between point two and point eleven in your board. Once you have successfully assembled the prime to block the activity of your opponent, the opponent doesn’t even get to roll the dice, and you shift your pieces and roll the dice again. You will win the game for sure.

    The Back Game Strategy

    The goals of the Back Game strategy and the Blocking Game technique are similar – to hurt your opponent’s positions hoping to improve your odds of winning, however the Back Game tactic uses seperate tactics to achieve that. The Back Game strategy is frequently used when you’re far behind your competitor. To participate in Backgammon with this tactic, you have to control two or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This plan is more complex than others to use in Backgammon seeing as it needs careful movement of your chips and how the chips are moved is partially the result of the dice roll.
