The aim of a Backgammon match is to move your pieces around the game board and bear those pieces from the game board faster than your challenger who works just as hard to attempt the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Succeeding in a match of Backgammon requires both strategy and luck. Just how far you will be able to shift your chips is left to the numbers from rolling the dice, and how you move your chips are determined by your overall gambling techniques. Enthusiasts use a number of tactics in the differing parts of a match dependent on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Plan
The aim of the Running Game tactic is to bring all your checkers into your inner board and get them off as quickly as you could. This technique focuses on the speed of shifting your chips with little or no time spent to hit or barricade your competitor’s chips. The best scenario to use this strategy is when you think you might be able to move your own checkers quicker than the opposing player does: when 1) you have a fewer chips on the game board; 2) all your checkers have past your competitor’s chips; or 3) the opposing player doesn’t employ the hitting or blocking tactic.
The Blocking Game Plan
The main goal of the blocking strategy, by the name, is to block the opponent’s pieces, temporarily, not fretting about moving your chips quickly. Once you have established the barrier for the competitor’s movement with a couple of pieces, you can shift your other chips quickly off the game board. The player will need to also have a good plan when to back off and shift the checkers that you used for blocking. The game becomes intriguing when your competitor utilizes the same blocking tactic.
