How to recognise it

Only the back and right edges are yellow on top. A full yellow bar on the left, and the front-right corner's yellow faces you.

Its inverse is another case

Do the 49 algorithm backwards, r' U r2 U' r2 U' r2 U r', and you are solving 50.

That's why CubeDojo never scrambles 49 that way: it builds a random state with the case fixed, so you practise 49 and not 50.
