The objective of a Backgammon match is to move your checkers around the Backgammon board and get them from the game board quicker than your opposing player who works just as hard to attempt the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Winning a round in Backgammon needsrequires both strategy and fortune. Just how far you will be able to move your pieces is up to the numbers from rolling the dice, and just how you move your pieces are decided on by your overall playing tactics. Players use a number of techniques in the different stages of a match depending on your positions and opponent’s.

The Running Game Technique

The aim of the Running Game technique is to lure all your checkers into your home board and pull them off as quickly as you could. This technique focuses on the pace of shifting your chips with no efforts to hit or stop your competitor’s checkers. The ideal scenario to employ this technique is when you think you might be able to move your own checkers a lot faster than the opposing player does: when 1) you have a fewer pieces on the game board; 2) all your checkers have moved beyond your competitor’s pieces; or 3) the opposing player does not use the hitting or blocking tactic.

The Blocking Game Technique

The primary goal of the blocking technique, by the name, is to stop the opponent’s pieces, temporarily, while not worrying about moving your pieces quickly. As soon as you’ve created the blockage for your competitor’s movement with a couple of pieces, you can move your other checkers quickly from the board. You will need to also have a good plan when to extract and shift the checkers that you used for blocking. The game becomes intriguing when the opposition utilizes the same blocking technique.
