The aim of a Backgammon game is to shift your checkers around the Backgammon board and pull those pieces off the game board faster than your opponent who works just as hard to attempt the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Winning a match in Backgammon requires both strategy and luck. How far you can shift your checkers is left to the numbers from rolling a pair of dice, and just how you move your checkers are determined by your overall gambling techniques. Enthusiasts use differing strategies in the different stages of a match dependent on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Technique
The aim of the Running Game strategy is to entice all your pieces into your home board and bear them off as quick as you can. This strategy focuses on the speed of shifting your chips with no time spent to hit or barricade your opponent’s pieces. The best time to employ this strategy is when you believe you can move your own chips faster than your opponent does: when 1) you have a fewer checkers on the game board; 2) all your pieces have past your competitor’s checkers; or 3) your opposing player doesn’t use the hitting or blocking tactic.
The Blocking Game Strategy
The primary aim of the blocking strategy, by the title, is to block your opponent’s chips, temporarily, while not worrying about shifting your checkers quickly. Once you have established the blockade for the opponent’s movement with a few pieces, you can shift your other pieces swiftly off the game board. You should also have a clear strategy when to withdraw and move the pieces that you employed for the blockade. The game gets intriguing when the opposition uses the same blocking strategy.
