The aim of a Backgammon game is to move your checkers around the Backgammon board and pull those pieces from the game board quicker than your challenger who works just as hard to attempt the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Winning a game in Backgammon requires both strategy and good luck. Just how far you will be able to move your chips is up to the numbers from rolling the dice, and how you shift your checkers are decided on by your overall gambling strategies. Enthusiasts use a number of techniques in the differing stages of a match depending on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Strategy
The aim of the Running Game tactic is to entice all your checkers into your inner board and pull them off as fast as you could. This technique concentrates on the speed of advancing your chips with little or no time spent to hit or barricade your opponent’s pieces. The ideal time to use this technique is when you think you might be able to shift your own checkers quicker than your opposing player does: when 1) you have a fewer chips on the game board; 2) all your pieces have past your competitor’s checkers; or 3) the opposing player doesn’t employ the hitting or blocking tactic.
The Blocking Game Tactic
The primary aim of the blocking technique, by the title, is to stop the opponent’s pieces, temporarily, not worrying about shifting your checkers quickly. After you’ve established the blockade for your opponent’s movement with a few checkers, you can shift your other checkers quickly off the game board. The player really should also have a clear plan when to withdraw and move the pieces that you utilized for blocking. The game becomes interesting when your opposition uses the same blocking strategy.
