Yes, people. I tell you straight and true; Ruy Lopez is REFUTED after 3...a6??

Watch and learn... Fritz, Stockfish, Rybka and Houdini all confirm my theory...

Grandmasters have been doing it wrong for years.

Quite a lot of !! and ?? for such a hard to win position.

Why would black play 8. Kd8?

I will be less mean than the others.  Did you forget about another imbalance?  It's a big one, look at the minor pieces.

i.e. black has a bishop pair.

Even if not, creating a small positional advantage with white would hardly be revolutionary. And your king is out meaning black can probably develop with tempo i.e. queenside castle.

And white has a lead in development and positional advantage on the queenside. He will surely win if he is a grandmaster.
Assuming he is playing...you?

If I recall correctly, Black is supposed to play 5... Qg5, not 5 .... Qd5, and win the pawn on g2. That may take all the fun out of the line.

This is a very bad troll thread. Wikipedia only posts the 5...Qd5 line, saying "the win of the e-pawn for White is illusionary; Black can play 5...Qd5!" or something along those lines. However, Qg5 forces the win of two pawns(after the rook moves it's no longer defending the h-pawn) so it looks like that's better. 

Developous, some tips for you. When you're trolling, your lies must be outrageous, but, after glancing quickly at it, looks like it just MAY OR MAY NOT be true. And it's not very good if your lies can be corrobated(anyone with any of those engines you mentioned can quickly punch in your TN and realize that White is lost).
