The Basics of Backgammon Tactics – Part One
The objective of a Backgammon game is to shift your pieces around the Backgammon board and get those pieces from the game board quicker than your opponent who works harder to achieve the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Succeeding in a round of Backgammon requires both strategy and fortune. How far you can shift your chips is left to the numbers from rolling a pair of dice, and how you shift your pieces are decided on by your overall gambling tactics. Players use a few tactics in the differing stages of a match based on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Technique
The goal of the Running Game plan is to bring all your chips into your inside board and bear them off as quick as you could. This strategy concentrates on the speed of shifting your chips with no efforts to hit or stop your competitor’s checkers. The best scenario to employ this plan is when you believe you might be able to shift your own pieces quicker than the opponent does: when 1) you have less checkers on the board; 2) all your pieces have moved beyond your opponent’s checkers; or 3) your opposing player does not use the hitting or blocking technique.
The Blocking Game Plan
The primary aim of the blocking strategy, by its name, is to block the opponent’s chips, temporarily, while not worrying about shifting your checkers rapidly. As soon as you’ve established the barrier for your competitor’s movement with a couple of pieces, you can shift your other pieces rapidly from the board. You will need to also have a clear strategy when to withdraw and move the pieces that you utilized for blocking. The game becomes interesting when the competitor uses the same blocking tactic.
