The aim of a Backgammon game is to shift your chips around the Backgammon board and pull those pieces from the game board faster than your opposing player who works harder to achieve the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Winning a match of Backgammon requires both tactics and fortune. Just how far you can move your chips is left to the numbers from tossing the dice, and just how you shift your pieces are determined by your overall playing strategies. Players use a few techniques in the differing stages of a game dependent on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Plan
The aim of the Running Game tactic is to entice all your checkers into your inside board and get them off as fast as you can. This technique concentrates on the speed of moving your checkers with little or no efforts to hit or barricade your opponent’s chips. The best time to use this plan is when you believe you can move your own pieces a lot faster than the opposing player does: when 1) you have less chips on the game board; 2) all your pieces have moved beyond your competitor’s pieces; or 3) the opponent doesn’t employ the hitting or blocking plan.
The Blocking Game Technique
The primary aim of the blocking technique, by the title, is to block the competitor’s checkers, temporarily, not worrying about shifting your chips rapidly. After you’ve created the blockade for your opponent’s movement with a few chips, you can move your other checkers rapidly off the game board. The player should also have a good plan when to withdraw and move the pieces that you employed for the blockade. The game becomes interesting when your competitor uses the same blocking strategy.
