The goal of a Backgammon match is to move your pieces around the game board and bear those pieces off the board faster than your competitor who works harder to achieve the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Succeeding in a match in Backgammon requires both strategy and luck. How far you can shift your pieces is up to the numbers from tossing the dice, and the way you move your checkers are determined by your overall playing strategies. Enthusiasts use differing strategies in the differing parts of a match depending on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Technique
The goal of the Running Game plan is to bring all your checkers into your inner board and bear them off as fast as you can. This strategy focuses on the pace of moving your chips with little or no time spent to hit or block your competitor’s chips. The best time to use this strategy is when you believe you might be able to move your own checkers a lot faster than the opposing player does: when 1) you have less chips on the board; 2) all your chips have past your competitor’s pieces; or 3) your opposing player does not employ the hitting or blocking tactic.
The Blocking Game Plan
The main aim of the blocking plan, by the title, is to block the competitor’s pieces, temporarily, while not fretting about moving your pieces quickly. After you’ve established the blockage for the competitor’s movement with a couple of chips, you can shift your other pieces quickly off the board. The player really should also have an apparent strategy when to back off and shift the checkers that you employed for blocking. The game becomes intriguing when your opposition utilizes the same blocking strategy.
