Gill Trips His Opponent

After a flop of {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}, Carter Gill bet 1,100 and his opponent went all in for a total of 3,000. Gill opted to call and the hands were revealed.

Gill: {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Opponent: {k-Spades}{j-Spades}

The other player was drawing slim to Gill's trip tens. The turn brought the {4-Hearts} and the river was the {a-Clubs} which couldn't help the other player. After the hand Gill had 13,000 in his stack with no rebuy chips behind and the other player was forced to use one of his rebuy chips.
