The goal of a Backgammon match is to move your checkers around the game board and pull them from the board quicker than your challenger who works just as hard to attempt the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Winning a match in Backgammon requires both tactics and luck. How far you can shift your checkers is left to the numbers from rolling a pair of dice, and how you shift your chips are determined by your overall gambling tactics. Enthusiasts use a number of strategies in the different parts of a game based on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Plan
The goal of the Running Game tactic is to bring all your checkers into your home board and bear them off as quick as you could. This plan concentrates on the speed of shifting your pieces with no efforts to hit or barricade your opponent’s pieces. The best time to use this strategy is when you think you can shift your own chips quicker than your opposing player does: when 1) you have less checkers on the board; 2) all your checkers have moved beyond your competitor’s checkers; or 3) your opponent does not employ the hitting or blocking plan.
The Blocking Game Technique
The main goal of the blocking technique, by the title, is to block your competitor’s checkers, temporarily, not worrying about shifting your chips quickly. Once you’ve established the barrier for the opponent’s movement with a few checkers, you can move your other pieces quickly from the game board. The player will need to also have an apparent plan when to withdraw and shift the chips that you employed for the blockade. The game gets interesting when the opponent uses the same blocking technique.
