The Essential Details of Backgammon Strategies – Part 1
September 15th, 2021 by Claudia

The objective of a Backgammon match is to move your pieces 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 opposite direction. Succeeding in a round in Backgammon needsrequires 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 gambling tactics. Players use differing techniques in the different stages of a game depending on your positions and opponent’s.

The Running Game Technique

The aim of the Running Game technique is to entice all your checkers into your home board and pull them off as quickly as you could. This technique focuses on the speed of moving your checkers with little or no efforts to hit or block your opponent’s pieces. The ideal time to use this technique is when you think you can shift your own chips faster than the opponent does: when 1) you have a fewer checkers on the game board; 2) all your checkers have past your competitor’s chips; or 3) the opposing player does not use 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 pieces, temporarily, while not worrying about shifting your chips rapidly. After you’ve established the blockage for the opponent’s movement with a couple of pieces, you can move your other checkers quickly off the game board. You will need to also have a clear plan when to withdraw and shift the checkers that you utilized for the blockade. The game gets interesting when the opponent uses the same blocking strategy.
