Backgammon – Three Main Strategies

In astonishingly general terms, there are three general tactics employed. You want to be able to hop between tactics instantly as the action of the game unfolds.

The Blockade

This consists of building a 6-deep wall of pieces, or at a minimum as thick as you might achieve, to barricade in the competitor’s pieces that are on your 1-point. This is judged to be the most adequate tactic at the begining of the game. You can create the wall anywhere between your 11-point and your two-point and then move it into your home board as the game continues.

The Blitz

This involves closing your home board as quickly as as you can while keeping your competitor on the bar. i.e., if your opponent tosses an early two and moves one piece from your 1-point to your 3-point and you then roll a five-five, you will be able to play 6/1 6/1 8/3 eight/three. Your opponent is now in big-time dire straits seeing that they have two pieces on the bar and you have locked half your inner board!

The Backgame

This strategy is where you have two or higher anchors in your opponent’s home board. (An anchor spot is a position consisting of at a minimum two of your checkers.) It must be played when you are extremely behind as it much improves your chances. The best areas for anchors are towards your competitor’s lower points and also on abutting points or with a single point separating them. Timing is crucial for an effective backgame: after all, there is no reason having two nice anchor spots and a complete wall in your own home board if you are then forced to break apart this right away, while your competitor is shifting their checkers home, considering that you do not have any other additional checkers to shift! In this situation, it’s more tolerable to have pieces on the bar so that you are able to maintain your position up till your competitor provides you an opportunity to hit, so it will be a good idea to try and get your opposer to get them in this case!

The goal of a Backgammon game is to shift your chips around the Backgammon board and get them from the game board quicker than your challenger who works just as hard to do the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Winning a round in Backgammon requires both tactics and good luck. How far you will be able to shift your pieces is up to the numbers from tossing a pair of dice, and the way you shift your checkers are decided on by your overall gambling strategies. Players use differing techniques in the differing stages of a game dependent on your positions and opponent’s.

The Running Game Tactic

The aim of the Running Game tactic is to lure all your chips into your home board and get them off as quickly as you could. This plan concentrates on the pace of moving your chips with little or no time spent to hit or block your competitor’s chips. The ideal time to employ this plan is when you believe you can move your own checkers faster than the opponent does: when 1) you have less chips on the board; 2) all your chips have past your opponent’s checkers; or 3) the opponent does not use the hitting or blocking plan.

The Blocking Game Strategy

The main goal of the blocking technique, by the name, is to stop the opponent’s checkers, temporarily, while not worrying about moving your chips quickly. Once you’ve created the barrier for your competitor’s movement with a few checkers, you can shift your other chips quickly off the game board. The player should also have an apparent strategy when to withdraw and shift the pieces that you utilized for blocking. The game gets interesting when the competitor utilizes the same blocking strategy.
