 Yes. Here 's an equally short international post-chess game I
played a couple years ago. In the post-mortem, my opponent (who is
playing white) explained that he could have held-on much longer , but
prefered to save the cost of the air-mail stamps!! 


1) e4 - e5
2) f4 - exf4
3) Nf3- Be7
4) Bc4- Bh4+
5) g3 - f4xg3
6) Bxf7+ - Kf8!  and white resigned!! 

Note that any black move other than the mentioned move (Kf8) leads
to a rather quick black debacle!
