The objective of a Backgammon game is to move your checkers around the Backgammon board and get those pieces off the game board faster than your opposing player who works harder to attempt the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Succeeding in a game of Backgammon requires both tactics and fortune. Just how far you will be able to shift your pieces is up to the numbers from rolling a pair of dice, and how you shift your pieces are decided on by your overall playing strategies. Enthusiasts use differing plans in the differing parts of a game dependent on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Technique
The aim of the Running Game plan is to entice all your pieces into your home board and pull them off as fast as you could. This technique concentrates on the speed of advancing your checkers with no efforts to hit or block your competitor’s chips. The best time to employ this strategy is when you believe you might be able to move your own checkers a lot faster than the opponent does: when 1) you have less pieces on the game board; 2) all your pieces have past your competitor’s chips; or 3) the opposing player does not employ the hitting or blocking strategy.
The Blocking Game Tactic
The main goal of the blocking technique, by the name, is to block the competitor’s chips, temporarily, not fretting about moving your chips rapidly. As soon as you have created the blockade for the competitor’s movement with a couple of pieces, you can move your other pieces rapidly off the game board. You will need to also have a clear plan when to back off and shift the pieces that you employed for the blockade. The game gets interesting when the competitor uses the same blocking strategy.
