The goal of a Backgammon match is to move your checkers around the Backgammon board and get them from the game board faster than your challenger who works harder to do the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Winning a game of Backgammon requires both tactics and fortune. Just how far you can shift your checkers is left to the numbers from rolling a pair of dice, and the way you shift your checkers are decided on by your overall playing tactics. Players use a few tactics in the different parts of a match based on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Tactic
The aim of the Running Game strategy is to lure all your chips into your inner board and pull them off as quickly as you can. This strategy concentrates on the speed of advancing your checkers with no time spent to hit or barricade your opponent’s chips. The ideal scenario to employ this strategy is when you believe you can move your own pieces faster than your opponent does: when 1) you have less chips on the game board; 2) all your chips have moved beyond your opponent’s chips; or 3) the opposing player doesn’t use the hitting or blocking tactic.
The Blocking Game Technique
The main goal of the blocking strategy, by the title, is to block the competitor’s checkers, temporarily, not fretting about shifting your checkers quickly. Once you have established the blockade for the opponent’s movement with a couple of chips, you can move your other checkers quickly off the game board. You will need to also have an apparent plan when to back off and shift the pieces that you employed for blocking. The game becomes interesting when your competitor utilizes the same blocking strategy.
