While watching an on-line blitz game, the game reached the following position:
[d]r4r1k/6pp/1p6/p1ppPp1Q/2q2P1P/2P1P3/2PK2R1/3R4 w - - 0 24
while played Rdg1, even though Rxg7 might have been better. Without accessing strong chess entity, I found a seemingly drawish line.

Re: Complicated sacrifice
Sorting out material imbalances with Chessbase 14, i stumbled upon this game.
Amazingly 15. Bf1 and position is equal, even full rook down. It turns out the queen is trapped so white get some material back (e.g. Ne4 - Ng3)
[d]r1b1k2r/pp1n1ppp/2n1p3/4P3/1PBP1P2/2N1BN2/2PQ1KPP/7q w kq - 0 15
