The aim of a Backgammon match is to move your checkers around the Backgammon board and pull those pieces off the board faster than your competitor who works just as hard to achieve the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Succeeding in a game of Backgammon requires both tactics and fortune. How far you can shift your chips is left to the numbers from rolling the dice, and how you shift your checkers are decided on by your overall playing techniques. Enthusiasts use a number of plans in the differing stages of a match based on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Tactic
The aim of the Running Game strategy is to entice all your chips into your inside board and bear them off as quick as you could. This tactic focuses on the speed of shifting your checkers with absolutely no efforts to hit or barricade your opponent’s chips. The ideal scenario to employ this plan is when you believe you can move your own checkers quicker than your opponent does: when 1) you have a fewer checkers on the board; 2) all your checkers have moved beyond your opponent’s pieces; or 3) your opponent doesn’t use the hitting or blocking technique.
The Blocking Game Technique
The primary aim of the blocking technique, by its title, is to stop your opponent’s checkers, temporarily, while not fretting about moving your pieces rapidly. As soon as you’ve established the blockade for the competitor’s movement with a couple of checkers, you can move your other checkers swiftly from the board. The player should also have a good plan when to extract and shift the checkers that you employed for blocking. The game gets intriguing when the opposition utilizes the same blocking technique.
