The objective of a Backgammon game is to move your pieces around the Backgammon board and bear them from the board quicker than your competitor who works harder to do the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Winning a match in Backgammon requires both strategy and luck. Just how far you will be able to move your pieces is up to the numbers from tossing the dice, and how you move your checkers are decided on by your overall playing techniques. Players use differing plans in the different stages of a match based on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Plan
The goal of the Running Game technique is to bring all your checkers into your inner board and pull them off as quick as you can. This technique concentrates on the pace of shifting your checkers with little or no time spent to hit or stop your opponent’s chips. The ideal time to employ this strategy is when you believe you might be able to move your own pieces quicker than your opponent does: when 1) you have less pieces on the board; 2) all your checkers have moved beyond your opponent’s checkers; or 3) your opposing player doesn’t employ the hitting or blocking plan.
The Blocking Game Technique
The main goal of the blocking plan, by its name, is to stop the competitor’s pieces, temporarily, while not fretting about moving your chips quickly. Once you’ve established the barrier for the competitor’s movement with a few chips, you can shift your other pieces rapidly off the game board. You really should also have an apparent plan when to extract and shift the chips that you employed for the blockade. The game becomes interesting when the opposition uses the same blocking technique.
