The aim of a Backgammon game is to shift your checkers around the Backgammon board and get them from the board quicker than your opponent who works harder to do the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Winning a game of Backgammon requires both strategy and luck. How far you will be able to shift your pieces is up to the numbers from tossing the dice, and just how you move your chips are decided on by your overall gambling techniques. Players use a number of techniques in the different parts of a match dependent on your positions and opponent’s.

The Running Game Plan

The aim of the Running Game plan is to lure all your pieces into your home board and bear them off as fast as you can. This strategy focuses on the speed of advancing your pieces with no efforts to hit or stop your competitor’s pieces. The ideal scenario to use this technique is when you believe you might be able to shift your own checkers a lot faster than the opposition does: when 1) you have less pieces on the board; 2) all your checkers have moved beyond your competitor’s checkers; or 3) the opposing player doesn’t use the hitting or blocking strategy.

The Blocking Game Tactic

The main goal of the blocking technique, by the name, is to stop your competitor’s checkers, temporarily, while not fretting about shifting your checkers quickly. After you’ve created the barrier for the opponent’s movement with a couple of chips, you can move your other pieces swiftly from the board. The player will need to also have a good strategy when to back off and shift the chips that you utilized for the blockade. The game becomes intriguing when your opponent utilizes the same blocking strategy.
