The objective of a Backgammon game is to move your chips around the Backgammon board and bear them off the game board quicker than your opposing player who works just as hard to do the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Succeeding in a match in Backgammon requires both strategy and luck. How far you can move your pieces is up to the numbers from tossing a pair of dice, and the way you move your pieces are determined by your overall playing plans. Players use a number of tactics in the differing stages of a match depending on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Plan
The goal 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 tactic concentrates on the speed of shifting your checkers with no time spent to hit or stop your competitor’s pieces. The ideal time to employ this strategy is when you think you might be able to shift your own pieces quicker than the opposition does: when 1) you have a fewer pieces on the board; 2) all your pieces have moved beyond your competitor’s chips; or 3) the opposing player doesn’t use the hitting or blocking plan.
The Blocking Game Technique
The primary aim of the blocking strategy, by its title, is to block your opponent’s chips, temporarily, not worrying about moving your checkers quickly. As soon as you have established the blockage for the competitor’s movement with a few pieces, you can move your other pieces quickly off the board. You should also have a good plan when to extract and shift the chips that you employed for the blockade. The game gets intriguing when your opposition uses the same blocking tactic.
