The Gentleman Heads for the Exit

"The Gentleman" John Gale is out of today's tournament. Short-stacked, he took a shot at raising all in preflop after three other players came into the pot. Only one folded to his all-in raise. The other two called.

Those two players checked a flop of {8-Clubs} {3-Spades} {10-Diamonds}, but when the turn came {3-Hearts}, one of them bet, folding the other. The remaining player opened {7-Spades} {6-Clubs} {4-Spades} {3-Clubs} for trip threes. Gale showed unimproved aces. The {2-Clubs} on the river changed nothing.
