  • Backgammon - 3 Basic Strategies

    Ali 9:25 pm on June 19, 2020 | 0 Permalink | Log in to leave a Comment

    [ English ]

    In astonishingly simple terms, there are 3 chief strategies used. You need to be able to switch game plans quickly as the action of the match unfolds.

    The Blockade

    This is comprised of building a 6-deep wall of checkers, or at a minimum as deep as you can achieve, to barricade in your opponent’s checkers that are on your 1-point. This is deemed to be the most suitable tactic at the begining of the game. You can create the wall anyplace inbetween your eleven-point and your 2-point and then move it into your home board as the match advances.

    The Blitz

    This involves locking your home board as fast as as you can while keeping your challenger on the bar. e.g., if your opponent tosses an early 2 and moves one checker from your 1-point to your three-point and you then toss a 5-5, you will be able to play 6/1 six/one 8/3 8/3. Your opponent is now in serious trouble because they have 2 pieces on the bar and you have locked half your home board!

    The Backgame

    This plan is where you have 2 or higher pieces in your opponent’s home board. (An anchor is a position consisting of at least 2 of your pieces.) It should be played when you are significantly behind as this action much improves your circumstances. The better places for anchors are near your opponent’s smaller points and either on adjacent points or with one point in between. Timing is important for a powerful backgame: besides, there’s no point having 2 nice anchor spots and a complete wall in your own home board if you are then required to dismantle this right away, while your competitor is shifting their checkers home, taking into account that you don’t have any other additional checkers to move! In this situation, it is more tolerable to have checkers on the bar so that you might maintain your position until your competitor provides you an opportunity to hit, so it may be a wonderful idea to attempt and get your challenger to hit them in this case!

    The Blockade

    This comprises of creating a 6-deep wall of pieces, or at least as deep as you might achieve, to block in the opponent’s checkers that are located on your 1-point. This is considered to be the most adequate procedure at the start of the match. You can build the wall anyplace between your eleven-point and your 2-point and then shuffle it into your home board as the game advances.

    The Blitz

    This involves locking your home board as quick as possible while keeping your challenger on the bar. For example, if your challenger rolls an early two and moves one piece from your one-point to your 3-point and you then toss a five-five, you will be able to play 6/1 six/one 8/3 8/3. Your opponent is then in big-time dire straits due to the fact that they have two pieces on the bar and you have closed half your inner board!

    The Backgame

    This plan is where you have two or more pieces in your competitor’s home board. (An anchor spot is a point occupied by at a minimum two of your pieces.) It needs to be played when you are extremely behind as it much improves your chances. The better locations for anchors are towards your opponent’s smaller points and also on adjoining points or with a single point in between. Timing is important for a competent backgame: at the end of the day, there is no reason having 2 nice anchors and a solid wall in your own home board if you are then required to dismantle this right away, while your opposer is moving their pieces home, considering that you do not have other additional pieces to move! In this case, it is more tolerable to have checkers on the bar so that you can preserve your position up till your opposer gives you a chance to hit, so it can be an excellent idea to try and get your challenger to get them in this case!
