The aim of a Backgammon match is to shift your checkers around the game board and bear them off the game board faster than your competitor who works harder to do the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Succeeding in a match of Backgammon needsrequires both strategy and luck. Just how far you can shift your checkers is up to the numbers from rolling a pair of dice, and the way you shift your pieces are decided on by your overall gambling tactics. Players use different techniques in the differing parts of a game depending on your positions and opponent’s.

The Running Game Plan

The goal of the Running Game plan is to bring all your chips into your inside board and pull them off as quickly as you could. This tactic concentrates on the speed of advancing your checkers with no efforts to hit or stop your opponent’s checkers. The best time to use this strategy is when you believe you can move your own checkers a lot faster than your opposition does: when 1) you have less pieces on the board; 2) all your chips have moved beyond your opponent’s chips; or 3) the opposing player doesn’t employ the hitting or blocking technique.

The Blocking Game Plan

The primary aim of the blocking plan, by its name, is to block your competitor’s chips, temporarily, not fretting about moving your checkers quickly. As soon as you’ve created the blockade for your competitor’s movement with a few chips, you can move your other checkers quickly off the game board. You really should also have a good strategy when to back off and move the checkers that you used for blocking. The game becomes intriguing when the competitor uses the same blocking strategy.
