The goal of a Backgammon match is to move your pieces around the game board and bear them off the board faster than your challenger who works harder to do the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Succeeding in a game in Backgammon requires both tactics and fortune. How far you can move your checkers is up to the numbers from tossing the dice, and how you move your chips are determined by your overall playing tactics. Enthusiasts use a number of techniques in the different stages of a match depending on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Strategy
The goal of the Running Game technique is to bring all your chips into your home board and get them off as quickly as you could. This strategy focuses on the pace of moving your checkers with absolutely no efforts to hit or stop your competitor’s checkers. The best time to use this tactic is when you think you can shift your own chips faster than the opposition does: when 1) you have less checkers on the game board; 2) all your checkers have moved beyond your opponent’s chips; or 3) your opposing player does not employ the hitting or blocking tactic.
The Blocking Game Plan
The primary aim of the blocking tactic, by its name, is to stop the competitor’s checkers, temporarily, not fretting about moving your checkers rapidly. Once you have created the blockage for your competitor’s movement with a few pieces, you can shift your other pieces swiftly from the board. The player really should also have an apparent strategy when to back off and move the pieces that you used for blocking. The game gets interesting when the opposition uses the same blocking technique.
