The Essential Details of Backgammon Tactics – Part One
The goal of a Backgammon game is to shift your chips around the game board and pull those pieces from the board quicker than your opponent who works harder to achieve the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Succeeding in a round in Backgammon requires both strategy and luck. How far you can shift your checkers is up to the numbers from tossing a pair of dice, and how you move your chips are determined by your overall playing tactics. Players use a number of strategies 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 entice all your pieces into your inside board and get them off as quick as you could. This plan concentrates on the pace of shifting your checkers with no time spent to hit or stop your competitor’s chips. The best scenario to employ this plan is when you think you can move your own pieces quicker than your opposing player does: when 1) you have a fewer checkers on the game board; 2) all your checkers have moved beyond your competitor’s pieces; or 3) the opponent doesn’t use the hitting or blocking strategy.
The Blocking Game Strategy
The primary goal of the blocking tactic, by its name, is to block the competitor’s checkers, temporarily, not fretting about shifting your chips quickly. As soon as you’ve created the blockade for the opponent’s movement with a few chips, you can shift your other pieces quickly from the board. The player should also have a good strategy when to extract and move the chips that you used for the blockade. The game becomes intriguing when your opponent uses the same blocking tactic.
