The Essential Basics of Backgammon Tactics – Part One
The aim of a Backgammon match is to move your pieces around the Backgammon board and bear them from the board faster than your opponent who works harder to do the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Succeeding in a match in Backgammon requires both tactics and good luck. Just how far you will be able to move your checkers is left to the numbers from rolling the dice, and just how you move your chips are determined by your overall playing plans. Players use different techniques in the differing parts of a match dependent on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Strategy
The goal of the Running Game plan is to bring all your checkers into your inner board and pull them off as quickly as you can. This tactic focuses on the speed of moving your chips with no efforts to hit or block your opponent’s chips. The best scenario to employ this tactic is when you believe you might be able to shift your own pieces a lot faster than your opposition does: when 1) you have a fewer checkers on the board; 2) all your chips have past your competitor’s pieces; or 3) the opposing player does not employ the hitting or blocking strategy.
The Blocking Game Technique
The primary aim of the blocking plan, by its title, is to stop the opponent’s chips, temporarily, while not worrying about moving your pieces quickly. After you have established the blockage for your opponent’s movement with a few chips, you can move your other pieces rapidly off the game board. The player really should also have an apparent plan when to back off and move the chips that you utilized for the blockade. The game gets interesting when your opponent utilizes the same blocking technique.
