The objective of a Backgammon game is to shift your chips around the Backgammon board and bear those pieces from the board quicker than your challenger who works harder to do the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Winning a round of 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 decided on by your overall gambling plans. Players use a number of techniques in the differing parts of a game dependent on your positions and opponent’s.

The Running Game Strategy

The goal of the Running Game plan is to lure all your pieces into your inside board and bear them off as quick as you can. This strategy concentrates on the speed of shifting your chips with no efforts to hit or block your competitor’s chips. The best scenario to use this plan is when you think you can shift your own chips faster than your opposition does: when 1) you have less checkers on the game board; 2) all your chips have moved beyond your competitor’s chips; or 3) your opposing player doesn’t use the hitting or blocking plan.

The Blocking Game Strategy

The primary aim of the blocking technique, by the name, is to block your competitor’s checkers, temporarily, not worrying about shifting your chips quickly. As soon as you’ve created the blockage for your competitor’s movement with a couple of pieces, you can move your other pieces swiftly from the board. The player should also have a clear strategy when to withdraw and shift the chips that you used for blocking. The game gets interesting when the competitor utilizes the same blocking technique.
