The goal of a Backgammon game is to shift your pieces around the game board and pull those pieces from the game board faster than your opponent who works just as hard to do the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Succeeding in a game in Backgammon requires both strategy and fortune. How far you can move your pieces is left to the numbers from rolling the dice, and just how you move your checkers are determined by your overall gambling strategies. Enthusiasts use different tactics in the differing parts of a game based on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Tactic
The goal of the Running Game plan is to bring all your pieces into your home board and get them off as quick as you could. This technique concentrates on the pace of advancing your chips with little or no time spent to hit or block your competitor’s chips. The ideal time to employ this strategy is when you believe you might be able to shift your own pieces a lot faster than your opposition does: when 1) you have less pieces on the game board; 2) all your checkers have moved beyond your opponent’s pieces; or 3) your opponent doesn’t use the hitting or blocking plan.
The Blocking Game Technique
The main goal of the blocking technique, by its name, is to block your competitor’s chips, temporarily, while not worrying about moving your chips rapidly. As soon as you’ve established the barrier for the competitor’s movement with a few chips, you can shift your other checkers quickly off the board. You should also have a clear plan when to back off and move the chips that you utilized for the blockade. The game becomes interesting when your opposition utilizes the same blocking tactic.
