The Basics of Backgammon Strategies – Part 1
July 13th, 2023 by Claudia

The goal of a Backgammon match is to shift your pieces around the Backgammon board and bear them from the game board quicker than your opponent who works just as hard to achieve the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Succeeding in a match of Backgammon needsrequires both strategy and fortune. 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 gambling techniques. Players use different techniques in the different parts of a game based on your positions and opponent’s.

The Running Game Tactic

The goal of the Running Game plan is to lure all your pieces into your home board and bear them off as fast as you can. This tactic concentrates on the pace of advancing your chips with little or no efforts to hit or block your opponent’s chips. The best scenario to employ this strategy is when you think you can shift your own chips a lot faster than the opponent does: when 1) you have a fewer checkers on the board; 2) all your pieces have past your competitor’s chips; or 3) the opposing player does not use the hitting or blocking technique.

The Blocking Game Technique

The main goal of the blocking plan, by its name, is to stop your competitor’s chips, temporarily, not worrying about moving your checkers rapidly. Once you have created the blockade for your competitor’s movement with a few chips, you can shift your other checkers rapidly from the game board. The player will need to also have an apparent plan when to withdraw and shift the chips that you utilized for the blockade. The game gets interesting when your opponent uses the same blocking technique.
