If you followed this build as written for too long then you'd probably get rolled over, but if you were following the kind of 111 response I stated earlier then I think you should have enough units by the time such an attack hits. Your 5 Gateway production should've already kicked in by that point, but it'd be close. To be honest, it depends how well that build fakes a 2 Rax, because if it's faked well enough then I would've transitioned into this build and I'm not really sure who comes out on top in that situation. I don't think I would have enough production from only 3 Gateways to overpower the Terran if they get a good Siege position, but if I catch the opponent unsieged then I'd probably have a good shot.

Is it anything like this build: http://drop.sc/285316

My first engagement is actually horrible in this game because I don't lead with my Zealots and they get stuck behind everything else, only getting into the fight once pretty much everything else is dead. It's pretty pathetic, but I managed to scrape through despite my mistakes... It should've been one-sided in my favour if I'm being honest.

EDIT:

And Teoita is probably right, these sorts of question are more valid in the thread for a general 2 Gate Robo opening, they're not really relevant in a thread describing a specific all-in follow-up.

EDIT2:

Having read your description again, that build I've posted doesn't fit the bill. It hits a minute later than the build you've stated. If they'd moved out earlier they might've hit a similar timing, but they waited for more Tanks and that gave me time to get more Zealots... not that they were much use given how badly I controlled.

By the way, the response I gave was entirely deserved. I'm fairly tired of people repeating over and over that something "doesn't work" despite the fact that it's been shown to work at a very high level. If all I had were replays and VODs from the Bronze league then you might have a point, but that isn't the case. So quit making ridiculous statements, it only undermines any of your more meaningful points and basically makes you look silly...
