The Essential Basics of Backgammon Strategies – Part One
The aim of a Backgammon match is to shift your pieces around the Backgammon board and pull them off the game board quicker than your challenger who works harder to do the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Winning a match in Backgammon requires both tactics and fortune. How far you will be able to move your checkers is left to the numbers from tossing a pair of dice, and just how you move your chips are decided on by your overall gambling tactics. Enthusiasts use different tactics in the different stages of a match depending on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Technique
The aim of the Running Game tactic is to entice all your pieces into your inside board and get them off as fast as you could. This plan focuses on the pace of advancing your pieces with little or no time spent to hit or barricade your competitor’s pieces. The best scenario to employ this tactic is when you believe you might be able to shift your own pieces quicker than your opposition does: when 1) you have a fewer checkers on the board; 2) all your checkers have moved beyond your competitor’s pieces; or 3) the opposing player does not employ the hitting or blocking strategy.
The Blocking Game Tactic
The primary goal of the blocking plan, by its name, is to block the opponent’s pieces, temporarily, while not worrying about shifting your chips quickly. As soon as you have established the blockade for the opponent’s movement with a couple of pieces, you can move your other checkers quickly from the board. You really should also have a good plan when to withdraw and move the pieces that you used for the blockade. The game becomes intriguing when your opposition uses the same blocking technique.
