The objective of a Backgammon match is to shift your pieces around the Backgammon board and get those pieces off the game board quicker than your challenger who works harder to do the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Succeeding in a game of Backgammon needsrequires both strategy and good luck. How far you will be able to shift your checkers is up to the numbers from tossing a pair of dice, and the way you move your pieces are determined by your overall gambling strategies. Players use a few techniques in the differing stages of a match based on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Technique
The goal of the Running Game plan is to entice all your checkers into your inside board and bear them off as quick as you could. This technique concentrates on the pace of moving your chips with little or no efforts to hit or barricade your opponent’s checkers. The ideal scenario to employ this tactic is when you believe you might be able to move your own checkers a lot faster than the opposition does: when 1) you have less checkers on the board; 2) all your chips have moved beyond your opponent’s chips; or 3) the opponent doesn’t use the hitting or blocking plan.
The Blocking Game Tactic
The primary aim of the blocking tactic, by the title, is to block the opponent’s pieces, temporarily, not worrying about shifting your checkers quickly. Once you’ve established the blockage for your competitor’s movement with a few chips, you can move your other checkers swiftly off the board. The player should also have a clear strategy when to back off and shift the pieces that you used for blocking. The game becomes interesting when your competitor utilizes the same blocking strategy.
