The objective of a Backgammon game is to shift your pieces around the game board and bear them off the board quicker than your opponent who works just as hard to achieve the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Succeeding in a game of Backgammon needsrequires both tactics and fortune. Just how far you can move your pieces is left to the numbers from rolling the dices, and just how you shift your checkers are determined by your overall gambling strategies. Enthusiasts use different techniques in the different parts of a game depending on your positions and opponent’s.

The Running Game Technique

The aim of the Running Game tactic is to lure all your pieces into your home board and pull them off as quick as you can. This tactic focuses on the speed of moving your chips with no time spent to hit or barricade your competitor’s pieces. The ideal time to employ this tactic is when you think you might be able to shift your own pieces quicker than your opposing player does: when 1) you have a fewer pieces on the board; 2) all your pieces have past your competitor’s chips; or 3) your opposing player doesn’t employ the hitting or blocking plan.

The Blocking Game Strategy

The main goal of the blocking plan, by the name, is to block your opponent’s checkers, temporarily, not worrying about shifting your pieces quickly. After you have created the barrier for your opponent’s movement with a couple of chips, you can shift your other checkers quickly off the game board. The player will need to also have a clear strategy when to extract and move the pieces that you used for the blockade. The game gets intriguing when the opponent uses the same blocking strategy.
