The objective of a Backgammon match is to shift your checkers around the game board and pull them from the board quicker than your opponent who works just as hard to achieve the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Succeeding in a match of Backgammon needsrequires both strategy and fortune. How far you can shift your pieces is up to the numbers from tossing the dice, and how you move your pieces are determined by your overall gambling strategies. Players use a number of plans in the different stages of a match based on your positions and opponent’s.

The Running Game Plan

The aim of the Running Game strategy is to lure all your checkers into your inside board and get them off as fast as you could. This strategy focuses on the pace of advancing your checkers with no time spent to hit or barricade your competitor’s checkers. The best scenario to use this plan is when you believe you might be able to move your own chips quicker than your opposition does: when 1) you have less pieces on the game board; 2) all your pieces have past your competitor’s pieces; or 3) the opponent doesn’t use the hitting or blocking technique.

The Blocking Game Technique

The main goal of the blocking plan, by its title, is to block the opponent’s pieces, temporarily, not fretting about shifting your checkers quickly. Once you’ve established the blockade for the competitor’s movement with a few checkers, you can shift your other pieces swiftly off the board. You really should also have a clear plan when to back off and shift the pieces that you employed for blocking. The game gets interesting when the opposition utilizes the same blocking tactic.
