As we dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a game of talent and good luck. The goal is to shift your checkers safely around the board to your inside board while at the same time your opposition moves their pieces toward their home board in the opposing direction. With opposing player checkers heading in opposite directions there is bound to be conflict and the requirement for particular strategies at particular times. Here are the last 2 Backgammon strategies to complete your game.

The Priming Game Strategy

If the purpose of the blocking strategy is to hamper the opponents ability to shift her chips, the Priming Game strategy is to absolutely block any movement of the opposing player by building a prime - ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor's checkers will either get hit, or result a battered position if he at all attempts to leave the wall. The ambush of the prime can be established anyplace between point two and point eleven in your board. After you've successfully constructed the prime to stop the activity of your opponent, the competitor doesn't even get a chance to toss the dice, and you shift your checkers and roll the dice yet again. You'll win the game for sure.

The Back Game Strategy

The objectives of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game strategy are very similar - to harm your opponent's positions hoping to improve your chances of succeeding, but the Back Game tactic uses different techniques to achieve that. The Back Game plan is generally utilized when you're far behind your opponent. To play 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 difficult than others to use in Backgammon seeing as it requires careful movement of your pieces and how the pieces are relocated is partially the result of the dice roll.
