The objective of a Backgammon match is to shift your pieces around the Backgammon board and get them from the game board faster than your opposing player who works harder to do the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Winning a round in Backgammon requires both strategy and luck. Just how far you can shift your chips is up to the numbers from rolling a pair of dice, and how you shift your chips are determined by your overall gambling tactics. Players use differing techniques in the different parts of a game based on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Strategy
The goal of the Running Game technique is to entice all your chips into your inside board and pull them off as quickly as you can. This plan concentrates on the speed of moving your checkers with little or no time spent to hit or barricade your opponent’s checkers. The ideal scenario to use this plan is when you believe you can shift your own chips quicker than the opposing player does: when 1) you have less chips on the board; 2) all your pieces have moved beyond your opponent’s chips; or 3) your opponent doesn’t employ the hitting or blocking strategy.
The Blocking Game Strategy
The main aim of the blocking technique, by its name, is to stop your opponent’s checkers, temporarily, while not worrying about moving your checkers quickly. Once you’ve created the blockage for your competitor’s movement with a few checkers, you can shift your other checkers quickly off the board. The player should also have an apparent plan when to withdraw and shift the pieces that you utilized for blocking. The game becomes intriguing when the opposition uses the same blocking tactic.
