There is no best response! The best you can hope for is a 5000 point disadvantage from the opening

6.  ...      Bd7+

7.  Bb5     Qxb5#

Or, am I missing something?

The symmetrical defense is refuted by the retreat variation 3. Ke1; quite sneakily, black is the one having a badly placed king, not being allowed to castle anymore and black will soon find himself to be fighting an uphill battle
