The objective of a Backgammon game is to shift your checkers around the Backgammon board and get those pieces off the board quicker than your opponent who works just as hard to achieve the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Winning a match of Backgammon requires both strategy and luck. Just how far you will be able to move your checkers is left to the numbers from tossing a pair of dice, and how you shift your pieces are determined by your overall playing techniques. Enthusiasts use different techniques in the different parts of a game depending on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Technique
The aim of the Running Game tactic is to lure all your chips into your home board and get them off as quickly as you could. This technique focuses on the pace of shifting your checkers with no efforts to hit or stop your opponent’s pieces. The ideal time to use this technique is when you believe you might be able to shift your own pieces a lot faster than your opposition does: when 1) you have a fewer pieces on the game board; 2) all your pieces have moved beyond your opponent’s checkers; or 3) your opposing player doesn’t employ the hitting or blocking strategy.
The Blocking Game Technique
The primary aim of the blocking tactic, by its title, is to block the opponent’s checkers, temporarily, not worrying about shifting your pieces quickly. As soon as you’ve established the blockage for the competitor’s movement with a few pieces, you can move your other pieces rapidly off the game board. You will need to also have a good plan when to back off and move the pieces that you utilized for the blockade. The game gets intriguing when the opposition uses the same blocking tactic.
