For the Fritz-CM game:
48... Rf4+ 49. Kxa5 Nf6 50. Nxe6
{if Qf8, Be1+ 51. Kb5 Rb4+ 52. Qxb4 Bxb4 53. Kxb4 Nxg4
[if e5, 54. g5 Nh5 55. Kc4 e4 56. g6 Kb6 57. Kd4 Ng3 58. g7 Nf5+
59. Kxe4 Nxg7 60. Nxb7, draw by tablebases.]
54. Nxe6 b6 55. Nc5 Ne5 56. Na4 Nc6+ 57. Kb5 Nd4+ 58. Kc4 Nc2 59.
Nxb6, draw by tablebases.}
50. ...Be1+ 51. Kb5 Rb4+ 52. Kc5 Bc3
{if Ne4+, 53. Kd5 Bc3
[if Nc3+, 54. Ke5 Rxg4 55. Qc8 Rh4 56. Nd8 Rh5+ 57. Ke6 Rb5 (if
Rh6+, 58. Kf5, and it drags out to a draw.) this drags out to a
draw, also.]
54. Qh2 Nf6+ 55. Kd6 Rxg4 56. Qf2+ Kb8 57. Ke7 Nd5+ 58. Kd7 Nf6+ 59.
Ke7, draw by repetition}
53. Qc8 {or Qd8} Ne4+ {if Rxg4, 54. Qd8 Rb4, ending in repetition} 54.
Kd5 Nf6+ 55. Kc5, repetition.
Looks like just about every playable variation ends in a draw. There may be
something deep in one of the ones above that 'drag out to a draw', but I don't
really think so.

I either messed up the move number somewhere, or a move was cut out by
accident...hope everything's ok there.
