The objective of a Backgammon game is to move your chips around the game board and pull them off the board quicker than your opposing player who works harder to do the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Succeeding in a match in Backgammon requires both strategy and luck. How far you can move your chips is up to the numbers from tossing the dice, and how you move your pieces are determined by your overall gambling strategies. Enthusiasts use a number of techniques in the differing parts of a match depending on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Tactic
The aim of the Running Game plan is to entice all your chips into your home board and bear them off as quick as you can. This plan concentrates on the pace of moving your pieces with no efforts to hit or block your competitor’s checkers. The ideal scenario to employ this technique is when you believe you can move your own chips a lot faster than your opponent does: when 1) you have a fewer pieces on the game board; 2) all your checkers have past your opponent’s checkers; or 3) your opponent does not employ the hitting or blocking strategy.
The Blocking Game Tactic
The primary goal of the blocking tactic, by its name, is to stop your competitor’s chips, temporarily, not worrying about moving your pieces rapidly. Once you’ve established the blockage for your competitor’s movement with a couple of checkers, you can move your other chips rapidly from the board. You really should also have a good strategy when to back off and shift the chips that you utilized for the blockade. The game gets interesting when your competitor utilizes the same blocking strategy.
