The aim of a Backgammon match is to move your checkers around the game board and pull them from the game board quicker than your competitor who works harder to attempt the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Winning a round in Backgammon requires both tactics and fortune. Just how far you will be able to move your pieces is left to the numbers from tossing the dice, and the way you move your pieces are decided on by your overall gambling techniques. Enthusiasts use different strategies in the differing parts of a match depending on your positions and opponent’s.

The Running Game Tactic

The goal of the Running Game tactic is to entice all your chips into your inside board and get them off as quick as you could. This strategy concentrates on the speed of moving your chips with little or no time spent to hit or barricade your opponent’s checkers. The best scenario to employ this plan is when you think you might be able to shift your own pieces quicker than your opponent does: when 1) you have less pieces on the game board; 2) all your chips have moved beyond your opponent’s checkers; or 3) your opposing player does not employ the hitting or blocking tactic.

The Blocking Game Strategy

The primary aim of the blocking technique, by the name, is to stop your competitor’s checkers, temporarily, not worrying about shifting your chips rapidly. As soon as you’ve established the blockade for your competitor’s movement with a couple of pieces, you can move your other pieces quickly off the game board. The player should also have a clear plan when to extract and move the chips that you utilized for blocking. The game becomes intriguing when the competitor uses the same blocking strategy.
