The objective of a Backgammon game is to shift your chips around the Backgammon board and bear them off the game board faster 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 requires both strategy and fortune. Just how far you can move your checkers is up to the numbers from tossing the dice, and just how you move your checkers are decided on by your overall gambling techniques. Players use a number of tactics in the different stages of a match dependent on your positions and opponent’s.

The Running Game Technique

The goal of the Running Game strategy is to lure all your pieces into your inner board and get them off as fast as you could. This technique concentrates on the pace of shifting your checkers with no efforts to hit or block your competitor’s pieces. The ideal time to use this tactic is when you think you can shift your own pieces a lot faster than the opposing player does: when 1) you have less chips on the board; 2) all your checkers have moved beyond your opponent’s chips; or 3) the opponent does not employ the hitting or blocking strategy.

The Blocking Game Strategy

The primary aim of the blocking tactic, by the title, is to block your competitor’s chips, temporarily, while not worrying about moving your pieces quickly. Once you have created the blockage for your opponent’s movement with a couple of checkers, you can move your other checkers swiftly from the game board. You will need to also have a clear strategy when to withdraw and move the checkers that you used for blocking. The game becomes intriguing when your competitor uses the same blocking tactic.
