As we have dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a game of skill and good luck. The aim is to move your pieces carefully around the board to your home board and at the same time your opponent moves their checkers toward their inner board in the opposing direction. With competing player pieces moving in opposing directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for specific tactics at specific instances. Here are the last 2 Backgammon techniques to round out your game.

The Priming Game Plan

If the purpose of the blocking plan is to hamper the opponents ability to shift her chips, the Priming Game plan is to completely stop any movement of the opposing player by assembling a prime - ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor's pieces will either get bumped, or result a bad position if he at all attempts to leave the wall. The ambush of the prime can be setup anyplace between point two and point eleven in your board. Once you have successfully constructed the prime to stop the activity of the competitor, the opponent doesn't even get a chance to toss the dice, that means you move your chips and toss the dice again. You will win the game for sure.

The Back Game Technique

The objectives of the Back Game technique and the Blocking Game strategy are very similar - to harm your opponent's positions in hope to improve your chances of succeeding, but the Back Game technique uses alternate techniques to achieve that. The Back Game plan is frequently employed when you are far behind your opponent. To play Backgammon with this technique, you have to hold two or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This tactic is more complex than others to employ in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your checkers and how the pieces are relocated is partly the result of the dice toss.
