The objective of a Backgammon match is to shift your checkers around the game board and bear them off the board quicker than your challenger who works just as hard to do the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Winning a game of Backgammon requires both strategy and good luck. Just how far you can move your pieces is up to the numbers from tossing a pair of dice, and the way you move your chips are decided on by your overall gambling techniques. Players use a few strategies in the different stages of a game based on your positions and opponent's.

The Running Game Strategy

The goal of the Running Game technique is to bring all your pieces into your home board and bear them off as quick as you could. This tactic focuses on the pace of shifting your chips with no time spent to hit or block your opponent's checkers. The ideal scenario to employ this plan is when you think you might be able to shift your own pieces a lot faster 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 opposing player doesn't use the hitting or blocking plan.

The Blocking Game Technique

The main goal of the blocking plan, by the name, is to block the opponent's chips, temporarily, while not worrying about moving your pieces rapidly. After you have established the barrier for your competitor's movement with a couple of checkers, you can move your other chips swiftly off the board. You will need to also have a good plan when to withdraw and move the chips that you utilized for blocking. The game becomes interesting when your competitor uses the same blocking tactic.
