I'm not really sure about that, I'd consider Polearm Gamble a case of the specific (entering a square triggers an opportunity attack) overrides the general (shifting not provoking opportunity attacks for movement). Its open to interpretation, tho.
No, it isn't. Specific vs. General means that the specific thing needs to actually override the general rule. Nothing in Polearm Gamble actually does so. It would need to say, for example, 'when a creature shifts'. There's a huge thread about this from some months ago that can probably be conjured up, but their fix now makes it so shifting works to get around threatening reach and polearm gamble.
Unfortunately they put opportunity attacks instead of opportunity actions, so there are still some things that could be argued to work.
