The Essential Facts of Backgammon Game Plans – Part One
The objective of a Backgammon match is to shift your chips around the game board and bear them from the board faster than your competitor 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 fortune. How far you can shift your chips is left to the numbers from tossing a pair of dice, and the way you shift your pieces are determined by your overall playing strategies. Players use a few techniques in the different stages of a game dependent on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Tactic
The aim of the Running Game technique is to entice all your pieces into your inside board and bear them off as quick as you could. This tactic focuses on the speed of shifting your pieces with little or no time spent to hit or stop your opponent’s chips. The ideal time to use this tactic is when you think you can shift your own pieces faster than your opposition does: when 1) you have less pieces on the game board; 2) all your pieces have moved beyond your opponent’s chips; or 3) your opponent does not use the hitting or blocking tactic.
The Blocking Game Plan
The main goal of the blocking tactic, by its name, is to stop the competitor’s chips, temporarily, while not fretting about shifting your chips rapidly. After you’ve created the barrier for your opponent’s movement with a couple of checkers, you can shift your other chips rapidly off the board. The player should also have a clear strategy when to extract and shift the pieces that you employed for blocking. The game becomes interesting when your competitor utilizes the same blocking strategy.
