The objective of a Backgammon match is to move your pieces around the Backgammon board and pull those pieces from the game board quicker than your competitor who works just as hard to do the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Winning a game in Backgammon requires both strategy and good luck. How far you will be able to shift your pieces is left to the numbers from tossing the dice, and how you shift your chips are determined by your overall gambling tactics. Enthusiasts use a number of strategies in the differing stages of a match based on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Strategy
The aim of the Running Game strategy is to bring all your pieces into your inner board and bear them off as quick as you can. This technique concentrates on the speed of moving your checkers with no time spent to hit or barricade your opponent’s checkers. The ideal time to employ this technique is when you think you can shift your own checkers faster than the opposing player does: when 1) you have a fewer pieces on the board; 2) all your pieces have past your competitor’s chips; or 3) your opposing player doesn’t employ the hitting or blocking plan.
The Blocking Game Tactic
The primary aim of the blocking technique, by the name, is to block your competitor’s checkers, temporarily, not worrying about shifting your chips quickly. Once you’ve created the barrier for your opponent’s movement with a few pieces, you can shift your other checkers swiftly from the board. The player should also have a good plan when to extract and shift the chips that you used for blocking. The game becomes interesting when the competitor uses the same blocking technique.
