Does anyone know if 'redhot' let me make a move that will open me to a check. (I know that in normal circumstances no) if that move puts my oponent in check? i think it should let me.

Perhaps he asking if he can expose his King to a check not
actually move into check.

RHP follows the rules to the letter, so no you can't!
You can't make a move that puts you in check even if you put your opponent in check. Why? Your opponent would capture your king first
