The goal of a Backgammon match is to move your pieces around the Backgammon board and pull those pieces off the board faster than your opponent who works harder to do the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Succeeding in a match in Backgammon requires both tactics and fortune. How far you will be able to shift your checkers is left to the numbers from tossing a pair of dice, and just how you move your checkers are determined by your overall playing strategies. Enthusiasts use different strategies in the different parts of a match based on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Strategy
The aim of the Running Game tactic is to lure all your checkers into your inner board and pull them off as fast as you can. This strategy focuses on the speed of shifting your checkers with no time spent to hit or barricade your opponent’s checkers. The best scenario to employ this strategy is when you think you can move your own checkers a lot faster than your opponent does: when 1) you have less pieces on the board; 2) all your pieces have past your opponent’s pieces; or 3) the opposing player doesn’t employ the hitting or blocking strategy.
The Blocking Game Plan
The primary goal of the blocking tactic, by its name, is to block the competitor’s pieces, temporarily, while not fretting about moving your chips quickly. As soon as you have created the blockade for your opponent’s movement with a few pieces, you can shift your other chips rapidly from the game board. The player should also have a good plan when to back off and shift the chips that you employed for the blockade. The game gets intriguing when your opposition utilizes the same blocking tactic.
