Pick Your Strategy: Why Not Play a Holding Game?

We all play backgammon differently and feel comfortable playing certain natural strategies.

But there are some basic time-proven strategies played by experts.

I’m no expert, although I’m trying to be. No, I’m a reporter, so I’ve been looking for ways to up my game.

Here’s an interesting strategy I came across recently.

If it works for you, great. If not, there are always more strategies.

I’d like to hear yours.

The holding game is a basic strategy used by many experts. It basically means keeping a point in the opponents home board area. The higher the position held the better your chances to win.

This has two advantages: you may hit easier bloats in his outer board area and also in case you get hit you have at least one point where to land when re-entering.

There is also a down side, if your anchor position is not on the opponent’s 4,5,6 points you might get stuck with your checkers.
