Succeeding in a round in Backgammon needsrequires both tactics and good luck. How far you can shift your chips is up to the numbers from rolling a pair of dice, and the way you move your chips are determined by your overall playing techniques. Enthusiasts use differing strategies in the different stages of a match based on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Tactic
The goal of the Running Game plan is to bring all your chips into your inside board and get them off as quickly as you can. This plan focuses on the speed of advancing your pieces with little or no efforts to hit or barricade your opponent’s pieces. The best time to employ this plan is when you think you can move your own checkers quicker than the opposing player does: when 1) you have less chips on the game board; 2) all your pieces 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 tactic, by its name, is to stop your opponent’s chips, temporarily, while not worrying about moving your checkers quickly. As soon as you’ve established the blockage for your competitor’s movement with a few checkers, you can shift your other checkers swiftly off the board. The player really should also have a clear plan when to back off and shift the checkers that you used for the blockade. The game gets interesting when the opposition utilizes the same blocking technique.
