Circuit Breakers Trip Every 4 to 5 Hours?

I bought a second hand 72" Barker Deli Cooler, 120 volts and 20 amps. I have it plugged to 12 gauge wire, 20 amps breaker designated outlet only by itself. After 4 to 5 hrs running the breaker tripped. I called a technician and told him the problem over the phone and he told me to change the breaker to 30 amps. Is there a 30 amps breaker for 120 V? and if so does it make sense to change the wiring to #10 gauge too? Or it is really the electrical supply that is the problem? Please give me some insight! Thanks.
