  <p>What confuses some people is that the "promotion" is a second action, which <em>feels</em> like a second turn. So they wrongly remember getting a second "turn."</p>

  If you promote a pawn do you get a second move to move it out of danger? Or do you still only get the promotion as your move and it becomes the opponents move?

  NO. You move the pawn to the eighth rank, promote it to a piece, and then your turn ends.
  
  What confuses some people is that the "promotion" is a second action, which *feels* like a second turn. So they wrongly remember getting a second "turn."
