The goal of a Backgammon game is to shift your chips around the game board and bear those pieces from the game board quicker than your opposing player who works just as hard to do the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Winning a round of Backgammon needsrequires both tactics and good luck. How far you will be able to shift your checkers is left to the numbers from tossing the dice, and the way you shift your checkers are determined by your overall gambling strategies. Enthusiasts use a number of plans in the different parts of a game based on your positions and opponent’s.

The Running Game Plan

The goal of the Running Game tactic is to entice all your chips into your inner board and pull them off as quickly as you could. This technique concentrates on the pace of shifting your chips with little or no efforts to hit or block your opponent’s pieces. The best time to use this technique is when you think you might be able to shift your own chips a lot faster than your opposing player does: when 1) you have less pieces on the board; 2) all your checkers have moved beyond your competitor’s chips; or 3) the opponent doesn’t use the hitting or blocking tactic.

The Blocking Game Technique

The primary goal of the blocking technique, by the title, is to stop the competitor’s pieces, temporarily, while not fretting about moving your chips quickly. After you’ve established the barrier for your opponent’s movement with a few pieces, you can move your other pieces quickly off the game board. You should also have an apparent strategy when to extract and shift the pieces that you used for the blockade. The game gets interesting when your opposition utilizes the same blocking technique.
