The goal of a Backgammon match is to shift your pieces around the game board and get those pieces off the game board quicker than your opposing player who works harder to achieve the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Succeeding in a game in Backgammon requires both strategy and good luck. How far you can move your chips is up to the numbers from rolling a pair of dice, and how you shift your pieces are decided on by your overall playing plans. Enthusiasts use differing strategies in the differing parts of a game dependent on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Technique
The goal of the Running Game technique is to bring all your chips into your inner board and pull them off as quickly as you can. This strategy focuses on the speed of advancing your checkers with absolutely no time spent to hit or barricade your opponent’s pieces. The best time to use this plan is when you think you can shift your own checkers a lot faster than the opposing player does: when 1) you have a fewer pieces on the board; 2) all your chips have past your opponent’s chips; or 3) the opposing player doesn’t use the hitting or blocking strategy.
The Blocking Game Plan
The main goal of the blocking strategy, by its name, is to block your opponent’s pieces, temporarily, not worrying about shifting your pieces rapidly. As soon as you have created the blockade for the opponent’s movement with a few chips, you can move your other checkers quickly off the board. The player will need to also have a apparent strategy when to extract and move the checkers that you used for the blockade. The game gets interesting when the opposition utilizes the same blocking strategy.
