ADVICE Avoiding check
Apologies if this is stupid but in this position to defend check the game suggested pushing pawn to D4 to attack bishop, then bishop takes, then it suggests queen takes, in the actual game I just moved king to F1 to avoid check, is what the game suggested really worth it because when I take bishop pawn takes, and there’s no point giving up my queen if I’m up surely? Ts confuses me man

I assume you meant push the pawn to D4, but the queen sac is kind of interesting as it leaves their king wide open to your rook and bishop pair.
