The objective of a Backgammon game is to shift your chips around the game board and bear those pieces from the board faster than your opposing player who works just as hard to do the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Succeeding in a match in Backgammon requires both tactics and luck. Just how far you will be able to shift your pieces is up to the numbers from rolling a pair of dice, and how you move your chips are determined by your overall gambling tactics. Players use differing techniques in the differing stages of a game dependent on your positions and opponent’s.

The Running Game Strategy

The goal of the Running Game strategy is to lure all your checkers into your inner board and pull them off as quickly as you could. This strategy focuses on the speed of moving your chips with absolutely no time spent to hit or block your competitor’s pieces. The ideal time to employ this strategy is when you think you can shift your own checkers quicker than your opposing player does: when 1) you have a fewer pieces on the board; 2) all your chips have past your competitor’s pieces; or 3) the opposing player does not employ the hitting or blocking plan.

The Blocking Game Technique

The main goal of the blocking technique, by its title, is to stop your opponent’s chips, temporarily, not fretting about moving your checkers rapidly. After you have created the barrier for your competitor’s movement with a few pieces, you can shift your other pieces rapidly from the game board. You will need to also have an apparent plan when to withdraw and move the pieces that you employed for the blockade. The game becomes interesting when your opposition utilizes the same blocking tactic.
