The Essential Basics of Backgammon Game Plans – Part 1
The aim of a Backgammon match is to shift your chips around the Backgammon board and pull them off the board faster than your opposing player who works harder to achieve the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Winning a game of Backgammon needsrequires both tactics and fortune. How far you can shift your checkers is left to the numbers from tossing a pair of dice, and the way you shift your checkers are determined by your overall playing techniques. Players use differing techniques 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 lure all your chips into your inside board and pull them off as fast as you can. This plan concentrates on the speed of moving your pieces with absolutely no time spent to hit or block your competitor’s chips. The best scenario to employ this strategy is when you believe you might be able to move your own chips quicker than the opposing player does: when 1) you have less chips on the board; 2) all your pieces have past your competitor’s pieces; or 3) the opponent does not use the hitting or blocking plan.
The Blocking Game Plan
The main goal of the blocking plan, by the title, is to stop your opponent’s pieces, temporarily, while not worrying about moving your checkers rapidly. After you have established the blockage for your competitor’s movement with a couple of chips, you can shift your other pieces rapidly off the game board. You will need to also have a clear plan when to withdraw and shift the checkers that you employed for the blockade. The game gets interesting when your opposition utilizes the same blocking tactic.
