The Essential Facts of Backgammon Strategies – Part 1
Friday, 13. March 2020
The aim of a Backgammon match is to shift your checkers around the game board and get them off the game board faster than your challenger who works just as hard to do the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Succeeding in a game in 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 checkers are determined by your overall playing strategies. Players use differing plans in the different parts of a game depending on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Strategy
The goal of the Running Game technique is to lure all your pieces into your inner board and get them off as fast as you could. This strategy concentrates on the speed of moving your pieces with little or no time spent to hit or barricade your competitor’s pieces. The best time to employ this tactic is when you think you can shift your own checkers quicker than your opponent does: when 1) you have a fewer checkers on the game board; 2) all your pieces have moved beyond your opponent’s checkers; or 3) your opposing player doesn’t use the hitting or blocking technique.
The Blocking Game Strategy
The primary goal of the blocking technique, by the title, is to block the opponent’s chips, temporarily, not worrying about moving your pieces rapidly. After you have established the blockage for the opponent’s movement with a couple of pieces, you can move your other chips quickly from the board. The player should also have an apparent strategy when to extract and move the chips that you used for the blockade. The game gets intriguing when the opponent uses the same blocking technique.
