The Essential Facts of Backgammon Game Plans – Part One
The objective of a Backgammon game is to move your pieces around the Backgammon board and get them off the game board quicker than your opposing player who works harder to do the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Winning a round of Backgammon requires both strategy and good luck. Just how far you will be able to shift your chips is up to the numbers from tossing the dice, and how you shift your checkers are determined by your overall playing plans. Players use a number of strategies in the differing stages of a game depending on your positions and opponent's.
The Running Game Plan
The goal of the Running Game technique is to lure all your chips into your inside board and get them off as fast as you can. This technique focuses on the pace of advancing your pieces with little or no efforts to hit or barricade your opponent's chips. The ideal scenario to use this strategy is when you believe you might be able to move your own checkers quicker than the opponent does: when 1) you have a fewer chips on the game board; 2) all your pieces have past your opponent's chips; or 3) the opponent does not employ the hitting or blocking plan.
The Blocking Game Plan
The primary aim of the blocking tactic, by the name, is to block your competitor's chips, temporarily, not fretting about shifting your pieces rapidly. As soon as you've established the blockage for the competitor's movement with a few chips, you can move your other chips swiftly off the game board. The player really should also have an apparent plan when to withdraw and move the chips that you employed for the blockade. The game gets interesting when the competitor uses the same blocking strategy.
