Sverre Krogh Sundbø (born 28 July 1981) is a former Norwegian poker player who came in second in the European Poker Championship in London in 2005 after being defeated by professional poker player Tony G during heads-up play.[1] However, he was given the title due to being the highest finishing European in the event.

Sundbø currently works as a TV-presenter in Norway and is hosting a travel show on Norwegian "Canal 9" (Channel 9).[2] Prior to this he hosted a reality show called "Det Store Spillet" (The big game) on TV3 during the spring of 2012.[3] Sundbø also does sports commentary and used to work at the Norwegian broadcasting channel NRK as a sports reporter in addition to making several other television appearances in Norway and abroad.

As of 2008, his total live tournament winnings exceeded $470,000.[4]

He is the son of singer Hanne Krogh.[5] In his teenages, he was a skilled bandy player for IF Ready.[6]
