The Essential Basics of Backgammon Game Plans – Part One
The aim of a Backgammon game is to move your checkers around the game board and pull those pieces from the board quicker than your opponent who works just as hard to do the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Succeeding in a match in Backgammon needsrequires both strategy and fortune. Just how far you will be able to move your chips is left to the numbers from rolling the dice, and how you shift your pieces are determined by your overall playing tactics. Players use differing plans in the different stages of a game dependent on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Strategy
The aim of the Running Game strategy is to lure all your chips into your inner board and get them off as fast as you can. This strategy focuses on the speed of shifting your chips with absolutely no efforts to hit or barricade your competitor’s checkers. The best time to employ this tactic is when you believe you might be able to move your own checkers faster than your opposing player does: when 1) you have less chips on the game board; 2) all your pieces have moved beyond your competitor’s pieces; or 3) your opponent doesn’t use the hitting or blocking tactic.
The Blocking Game Technique
The main goal of the blocking tactic, by the name, is to block your opponent’s checkers, temporarily, not worrying about moving your chips quickly. As soon as you’ve created the blockage for your opponent’s movement with a couple of pieces, you can move your other pieces swiftly off the game board. You should also have a good plan when to extract and move the checkers that you utilized for the blockade. The game becomes interesting when the opponent uses the same blocking tactic.
