 - If White plays K to b or c-file, Black keeps K on d6.
 - If White plays K to d-file thru h-file,
   Black keeps K on e5.

I've amended 2 of the above to handle the trivial 49...Bg1 50. c5 Bxc5 51.Kc4
consistently, since White gets his K on the c-file, but Black cannot answer Ke5
without hanging his B as per the former scheme. A little careless on my part.
