In the diagram above, the white checker on A4 cannot make a wall on B4 because the wall at B3 is in the way. In fact this checker cannot move at all because the other points in Quadrant B are already occupied. In the same diagram, the red checker on B5 can jump the walls at B6 and C2 to land at C5. There will be times when one player is unable to make any move at all. The other player continues to play until the immobilized player has an opportunity to move again.

Bearing off: Once a checker reaches Quadrant D, it cannot move any further until a second checker of the same color joins it to form a wall. Then the whole wall can be borne off in one turn. Bearing off a wall scores a point. And if the player who last scored a point scores again, he wins the game. Occasionally, the last two checkers of one side are placed so they cannot build a wall in the final quadrant. For example, in the diagram below, Red has one checker on C5 and the other on D3.

If Red has no other move, he must move his checker on C5 to a vacant point in Quadrant D, then on his next turn take it off without scoring. Strategy: Grasshopper gives an equal chance to both players. Fast, isolated checkers running to the final quadrant are not effective. You should advance cautiously in small or large groups.
