The aim of a Backgammon game is to move your pieces around the Backgammon board and pull those pieces from the game board faster than your competitor who works harder to attempt the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Succeeding in a game of Backgammon requires both strategy and good luck. How far you will be able to shift your pieces is left to the numbers from rolling the dice, and the way you shift your chips are determined by your overall playing plans. Players use a number of plans in the differing parts of a game based on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Plan
The aim of the Running Game plan is to lure all your chips into your inner board and get them off as quick as you could. This technique concentrates on the pace of advancing your checkers with no time spent to hit or block your competitor’s pieces. The best time to employ this strategy is when you think you can shift your own checkers quicker than the opponent does: when 1) you have less chips on the game board; 2) all your chips have past your competitor’s checkers; or 3) the opposing player does not employ the hitting or blocking technique.
The Blocking Game Plan
The primary goal of the blocking tactic, by its name, is to block your opponent’s chips, temporarily, not fretting about moving your pieces rapidly. As soon as you have created the blockade for the opponent’s movement with a couple of pieces, you can move your other chips swiftly off the board. You should also have a good strategy when to extract and move the pieces that you utilized for the blockade. The game becomes interesting when the competitor uses the same blocking technique.
