The goal of a Backgammon game is to move your chips around the game board and bear those pieces from the game board faster than your challenger who works just as hard to attempt the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Winning a game in Backgammon requires both strategy and good luck. Just how far you can move your checkers is up to the numbers from tossing the dice, and how you move your pieces are decided on by your overall gambling strategies. Players use different techniques in the differing parts of a match based on your positions and opponent’s.

The Running Game Strategy

The aim of the Running Game technique is to entice all your checkers into your home board and get them off as fast as you could. This strategy focuses on the pace of shifting your pieces with no time spent to hit or barricade your competitor’s checkers. The ideal time to employ this tactic is when you believe you can move your own pieces quicker than the opponent does: when 1) you have less pieces on the board; 2) all your checkers have past your opponent’s chips; or 3) the opposing player does not employ the hitting or blocking technique.

The Blocking Game Plan

The main aim of the blocking strategy, by the title, is to block the opponent’s pieces, temporarily, not fretting about moving your chips rapidly. Once you have created the blockade for the opponent’s movement with a few pieces, you can move your other chips rapidly from the board. You will need to also have a good strategy when to back off and shift the checkers that you employed for the blockade. The game gets interesting when your opposition utilizes the same blocking strategy.
