The Essential Details of Backgammon Game Plans – Part 1
The aim of a Backgammon game is to move your chips around the Backgammon board and pull those pieces off the board quicker than your competitor who works harder to do the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Winning a match of Backgammon requires both tactics and fortune. Just how far you will be able to move your checkers is up to the numbers from rolling the dice, and how you shift your checkers are determined by your overall playing plans. Players use a number of techniques in the differing stages of a match based on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Technique
The goal of the Running Game technique is to lure all your checkers into your inner board and bear them off as quick as you can. This plan focuses on the pace of advancing your pieces with little or no time spent to hit or stop your opponent’s chips. The ideal time to employ this tactic is when you believe you might be able to shift your own pieces quicker than the opposition does: when 1) you have less chips on the board; 2) all your chips have past your opponent’s chips; or 3) the opponent doesn’t employ the hitting or blocking plan.
The Blocking Game Strategy
The primary aim of the blocking strategy, by its title, is to block the opponent’s checkers, temporarily, while not worrying about moving your pieces quickly. As soon as you’ve established the barrier for the opponent’s movement with a couple of checkers, you can shift your other chips rapidly from the board. You will need to also have a good plan when to back off and shift the checkers that you used for the blockade. The game gets intriguing when your opponent uses the same blocking tactic.
