The aim of a Backgammon match is to move your chips around the Backgammon board and pull them from the board quicker than your competitor who works just as hard to attempt the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Winning a game in Backgammon requires both strategy and luck. Just how far you will be able to shift your checkers is left to the numbers from rolling the dice, and the way you move your pieces are determined by your overall playing techniques. Enthusiasts use a few strategies in the different stages of a game depending on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Strategy
The goal of the Running Game technique is to lure all your pieces into your inside board and get them off as quick as you could. This plan concentrates on the pace of advancing your chips with little or no time spent to hit or barricade your opponent’s checkers. The ideal scenario to employ this plan is when you believe you might be able to move your own chips faster than your opponent does: when 1) you have a fewer checkers on the board; 2) all your checkers have past your competitor’s chips; or 3) your opponent does not employ the hitting or blocking tactic.
The Blocking Game Strategy
The main aim of the blocking technique, by the name, is to stop your competitor’s checkers, temporarily, while not fretting about shifting your checkers quickly. As soon as you have created the blockade for the competitor’s movement with a couple of pieces, you can shift your other checkers swiftly from the game board. You really should also have a clear plan when to back off and move the chips that you employed for blocking. The game gets interesting when your competitor uses the same blocking technique.
