November 18th, 2020 by Kaitlynn

The aim of a Backgammon match is to shift your chips around the Backgammon board and bear those pieces off the board quicker 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 needsrequires both strategy and good luck. Just how far you can move your pieces is left to the numbers from tossing the dice, and how you move your pieces are determined by your overall playing tactics. Enthusiasts use a number of tactics in the different parts of a game based on your positions and opponent’s.

The Running Game Strategy

The goal of the Running Game plan is to bring all your pieces into your inside board and pull them off as quick as you can. This tactic focuses on the speed of shifting your pieces with absolutely no time spent to hit or stop your opponent’s chips. The ideal time to employ this tactic is when you think you can shift your own pieces a lot faster than the opposing player does: when 1) you have less pieces on the game board; 2) all your pieces have moved beyond your opponent’s checkers; or 3) the opposing player does not employ the hitting or blocking technique.

The Blocking Game Tactic

The main aim of the blocking strategy, by the title, is to stop your opponent’s pieces, temporarily, not fretting about moving your checkers quickly. As soon as you have created the blockade for the competitor’s movement with a few chips, you can shift your other chips swiftly off the game board. You really should also have a clear plan when to extract and shift the checkers that you employed for blocking. The game gets intriguing when your opposition uses the same blocking tactic.
