The goal of a Backgammon match is to shift your pieces around the game board and get them from the game board quicker than your opposing player who works harder to achieve the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Winning a game of Backgammon requires both tactics 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 chips are determined by your overall playing plans. Enthusiasts use different tactics in the differing stages of a game depending on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Plan
The aim of the Running Game strategy is to bring all your chips into your inside board and get them off as quickly as you could. This tactic focuses on the pace of shifting your chips with absolutely no efforts to hit or block your competitor’s chips. The ideal time to employ this technique is when you think you might be able to shift your own chips a lot faster than your opponent does: when 1) you have a fewer checkers on the board; 2) all your chips have moved beyond your competitor’s pieces; or 3) your opponent does not employ the hitting or blocking plan.
The Blocking Game Plan
The main goal of the blocking plan, by its name, is to stop the opponent’s chips, temporarily, while not worrying about shifting your checkers rapidly. After you have created the blockage for your competitor’s movement with a few checkers, you can move your other checkers swiftly off the board. The player will need to also have an apparent plan when to withdraw and shift the pieces that you used for the blockade. The game becomes intriguing when your competitor uses the same blocking strategy.
