The Basics of Backgammon Strategies – Part 1
The aim of a Backgammon match is to move your pieces around the Backgammon board and get those pieces off the board quicker than your challenger who works just as hard to attempt the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Winning a round of Backgammon needsrequires both strategy and luck. How far you can shift your checkers is left to the numbers from rolling the dice, and just how you move your chips are determined by your overall playing strategies. Enthusiasts use differing plans in the differing parts of a game based on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Strategy
The aim of the Running Game technique is to lure all your chips into your home board and pull them off as fast as you can. This strategy focuses on the pace of advancing your pieces with no efforts to hit or block your opponent’s chips. The ideal scenario to use this plan is when you believe you might be able to shift your own pieces faster than the opposition does: when 1) you have a fewer pieces on the game board; 2) all your chips have moved beyond your opponent’s chips; or 3) your opposing player doesn’t employ the hitting or blocking strategy.
The Blocking Game Strategy
The primary goal of the blocking tactic, by the name, is to stop the opponent’s checkers, temporarily, not worrying about shifting your pieces quickly. As soon as you’ve established the blockage for the competitor’s movement with a couple of checkers, you can shift your other checkers quickly from the game board. You will need to also have a clear plan when to extract and move the chips that you used for the blockade. The game gets intriguing when the competitor uses the same blocking strategy.
