"Small blocking goods"
Let me explain the reasons why I said that "It's not always the right move to put the biggest Blokus piece remaining in your tray", in my previous Blokus strategy's post. Blokus board game is like building the tallest walls to prevent people from playing inside your backyard. So, if putting a larger block on the grid will exposed your self to a possible enemy intrusion inside your protected territory, than it's not a good idea to lay down the big Blokus block.You always need to keep in mind that your primary goal should be to trap your opponents inside a small portion of the board, leaving some free space to put a mximum of pieces on it.

To do so,you need to apply some of my previous Blokus strategies and keep in mind that you should prefer to block other Blokus player, even with smaller pieces, than let them in. Look at the picture on the right and you will understand what I mean. The red player is about to play and could possibly place another five square block but instead he chooses to use a three square blokus part to block the blue player from progressing inside his territory (#1). With that move, the opponent will be forced to place is next piece higher leaving plenty of room to the red player (#2.


"Take a Peek"
This strategy is probably for expert Blokus player but nonetheless it could help improve everybody's overall winning stats even if they don't apply it constantly. It consist of taking a look once in a while at the remaining Blokus pieces of your opponent. I don't think it's cheating, it's simply trying to see the future! The goal of doing that is to plan ahead your next move.
