The aim of a Backgammon game is to move your pieces around the game board and pull those pieces off the game board faster than your opponent who works just as hard to achieve the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Succeeding in a game of Backgammon requires both strategy and good luck. How far you will be able to shift your checkers is up to the numbers from rolling the dice, and the way you move your checkers are determined by your overall gambling plans. Players use different tactics in the differing parts of a match depending on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Technique
The goal of the Running Game plan is to entice all your chips into your inner board and bear them off as fast as you can. This plan concentrates on the speed of shifting your chips with little or no time spent to hit or block your opponent’s pieces. The ideal time to use this plan is when you think you might be able to move your own chips a lot faster than the opposing player does: when 1) you have a fewer pieces on the game board; 2) all your checkers have past your opponent’s chips; or 3) the opposing player doesn’t use the hitting or blocking tactic.
The Blocking Game Tactic
The main aim of the blocking tactic, by the name, is to stop your competitor’s chips, temporarily, not fretting about moving your chips rapidly. As soon as you’ve established the blockage for the competitor’s movement with a few checkers, you can shift your other chips rapidly from the board. You will need to also have a clear strategy when to extract and shift the checkers that you utilized for the blockade. The game gets interesting when your opposition uses the same blocking tactic.
