The objective of a Backgammon game is to shift your checkers around the game board and bear them off the game board faster than your challenger who works harder to achieve the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Winning a round in Backgammon needsrequires both strategy and good luck. Just how far you can move your chips is left to the numbers from tossing the dice, and how you move your pieces are decided on by your overall playing strategies. Players use a number of strategies in the differing parts of a match based on your positions and opponent’s.

The Running Game Tactic

The aim of the Running Game strategy is to bring all your chips into your inside board and get them off as fast as you could. This technique concentrates on the pace of moving your pieces with little or no efforts to hit or stop your competitor’s pieces. The best time to employ this technique is when you believe you can shift your own checkers faster than your opposing player does: when 1) you have less pieces on the game board; 2) all your chips have moved beyond your opponent’s chips; or 3) the opponent does not employ the hitting or blocking strategy.

The Blocking Game Strategy

The primary goal of the blocking strategy, by the title, is to block your opponent’s chips, temporarily, while not fretting about moving your chips quickly. Once you’ve established the blockage for your opponent’s movement with a few checkers, you can shift your other pieces quickly off the board. The player really should also have a good strategy when to withdraw and shift the chips that you utilized for the blockade. The game becomes interesting when the opponent uses the same blocking strategy.
