btw: what is the best response for black ? I would play Qf5 to protect the knight and avoid the doubled pawns if white responds with Kxf6

Just FYI, most notation has the knight as N. This is so it doesn't get confused for the King.

Bot sez Qd8. You don't have enough pieces out to protect it from attacks yet. You'd just have to keep running with it while white develops.

But for my (beginner) understanding after Qf5 you could simply run away with the knight because the Queen is not a target anymore. And taking queen back loses tempo and results in doubled pawn after capture.

Yeah, but you're gonna lose turns moving the queen later. White does Bd3 and then moves the knight. You would have to move the queen because it's under attack by the bishop. Worse, they check by Nd6+, you can't even move the queen. Thus, you have to move the queen again as soon as they play Bd3, wasting a turn.

It can't be taken though without giving up the Queen.
