The goal of a Backgammon game is to move your checkers around the Backgammon board and pull those pieces off the board quicker than your challenger who works harder to achieve the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Winning a game in Backgammon requires both strategy and fortune. How far you can shift your checkers is left to the numbers from tossing the dice, and just how you shift your pieces are determined by your overall gambling techniques. Enthusiasts use a few strategies in the differing stages of a game depending on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Strategy
The goal of the Running Game tactic is to bring all your checkers into your inner board and bear them off as fast as you could. This technique focuses on the pace of moving your chips with little or no efforts to hit or block your opponent’s chips. The ideal time to use this tactic is when you think you might be able to shift your own pieces quicker than the opponent does: when 1) you have less checkers on the board; 2) all your chips have past your competitor’s chips; or 3) your opposing player doesn’t use the hitting or blocking technique.
The Blocking Game Plan
The main aim of the blocking technique, by the name, is to stop your opponent’s pieces, temporarily, not worrying about moving your checkers rapidly. Once you’ve created the barrier for the competitor’s movement with a couple of pieces, you can shift your other checkers quickly off the game board. The player should also have an apparent plan when to extract and move the chips that you used for blocking. The game gets interesting when your competitor uses the same blocking strategy.
