The aim of a Backgammon match is to shift your checkers around the game board and get those pieces off the game board quicker than your challenger who works harder to attempt the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Succeeding in a match of Backgammon requires both strategy and luck. Just how far you can shift your pieces is up to the numbers from rolling a pair of dice, and how you shift your chips are determined by your overall playing techniques. Enthusiasts use differing tactics in the different parts of a game dependent on your positions and opponent’s.

The Running Game Strategy

The goal of the Running Game tactic is to entice all your pieces into your inner board and bear them off as quick as you could. This tactic concentrates on the speed of advancing your pieces with no time spent to hit or block your competitor’s pieces. The best time to employ this plan is when you think you can shift your own chips faster than your opponent does: when 1) you have less pieces on the game board; 2) all your pieces have past your competitor’s chips; or 3) the opposing player does not use the hitting or blocking technique.

The Blocking Game Strategy

The main aim of the blocking strategy, by the name, is to block the competitor’s pieces, temporarily, while not fretting about shifting your checkers quickly. As soon as you’ve created the barrier for the competitor’s movement with a few pieces, you can shift your other chips rapidly off the board. The player will need to also have a clear strategy when to withdraw and shift the checkers that you used for blocking. The game gets intriguing when the opposition uses the same blocking tactic.
