The Basics of Backgammon Strategies – Part 1
The objective of a Backgammon match is to move your pieces around the game board and pull those pieces off the board faster than your challenger who works just as hard to do the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Succeeding in a round of Backgammon needsrequires both strategy and good luck. Just how far you can move your checkers is up to the numbers from rolling a pair of dice, and how you move your pieces are decided on by your overall playing strategies. Enthusiasts use different strategies in the differing stages of a match depending on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Technique
The goal of the Running Game technique is to lure all your pieces into your inside board and pull them off as quick as you could. This plan concentrates on the pace of advancing your pieces with absolutely no efforts to hit or stop your competitor’s checkers. The ideal time to employ this strategy is when you believe you might be able to shift your own pieces faster than your opponent does: when 1) you have a fewer checkers on the game board; 2) all your pieces have past your competitor’s pieces; or 3) your opposing player doesn’t use the hitting or blocking plan.
The Blocking Game Tactic
The primary aim of the blocking technique, by the title, is to block your competitor’s checkers, temporarily, not worrying about shifting your pieces rapidly. As soon as you have created the blockage for your opponent’s movement with a couple of pieces, you can shift your other chips quickly from the board. The player should also have an apparent plan when to withdraw and shift the checkers that you utilized for the blockade. The game becomes intriguing when your competitor uses the same blocking technique.
