In 2004, Sunar won the Grand Prix de Paris event in season 3 of the World Poker Tour, defeating Tony G in the heads-up confrontation with A7o. Tony G taunted Sunar before the confrontation, telling him "Surinder, you are going to bleed so badly once it is heads up. You're putting me to sleep. I'm scared for you!" Sunar sat expressionless throughout the final table, on the way to a €679,000 grand prize. Surinder Sunar placed 3rd in the 2012 English Poker Open, behind Chris Bjorin and Mickey Petersen, earning £35,880.[1] As of 2015, his total live tournament winnings exceed $4,650,000.[2] He has 31 cashes at World Series of Poker events, accounting for $675,135 of those winnings.[3] He stated that he does not play many tournaments anymore because of the rigorous concentration that is required. He explained in an interview that whilst playing a tournament and getting down to the final three players, fellow professional Dave Ulliott approached and told him that Princess Diana had died. Although he felt like he could think of nothing other than the tragedy, he turned inward to the place where he has total concentration and still won.[4] Filmography
