My wife and I were at his show a few years back when he did his show with a broken foot or ankle on a cart. We bought nosebleed seats and realized it was a cozy venue that seats about 200 people. I’d been a fan of CT since I was a kid and I’ve always wanted to see him. About 10 minutes before the show was to start an usher came up to us and asked if we would like to sit up front? We both looked at each other and said “sure what’s the catch?!” Usher said “no catch it’s just that there’s 2 empty seats up front and CT doesn’t want empty seats up front.” No BS! I laughed from beginning to end non stop. At the end of the show CT rode his buggy over and hi fived me. Thank you CT for making a middle aged dad with depression happy and laugh❤️🥕🔥
Suk hizdik
That is an awesome story.
I worked a CT show in San Francisco years ago and hung out with him on the street outside the venue in a super high crime area and he is so awesome and pretty fearless. I’m a total fan, he was hilarious and we laughed hard as crime was happening all around us
LOVE this story, glad you and your wife had a great memory like this :)
“Seems like the casino has an advantage”
Genius insight and a fresh new perspective
Lol
Lmfao 😂
Oh my god. Now that the truth is out, casinos will go out of business!!!
For real. Steve-O has uncovered a massive conspiracy!!
We should call the authorities!
I can not stand this dude lmao
Steve-O is so polite, he never talks over other people and he stops talking when other people talk over him.
He’s the complete opposite , unless you are being sarcastic
I also enjoy the lack of ads and self promotion. Some people really over do it with the ads and give me the ick...
@@iorilamiahe literally stopped talking whenever carrot top would start talking, how’s that opposite?
Watch a steveo video from 2+ years he was bad at cutting peole off and never letting them finish. Then he noticed how many comments were complaining about it and he stopped doing it. @Cemoman17
Carrot Top doesn't need to gamble. He already won the damn lottery.
For real you don't even need to know his name as long as you've seen him before your mind goes to him running Vegas
@@slaybomb96when did his residency run from, what years?
@@ronnieturner6820 Started at Luxor In 2005 and is under contract until 2030, but he worked the MGM for many years before that. I am not sure, but I think he is currently at 27 years between the two locations.
@@ronnieturner6820google is your friend
It’s awesome watching carrot top do these interviews. Looks like he’s weathered and so done with Vegas.
I think them bringing up the seriousness of gambling makes 🥕 reflect some and not feel so good knowing thats a good chunk of his fans.
As a worker at a casino, I see a lot of my coworkers obsessed with gambling. I look at them and I'm like, "do you not spend enough time at these places from working at one?"
Our casino even has a policy that workers are not allowed to gamble there
I may be wrong but I think it’s illegal for casino staff to gamble in casinos in the United Kingdom. I may be wrong if I am please correct me but I know there are some rules around it
I'd say it's more to do with cheating. Your mate could be giving you chips you never won etc
@@seangill9870 you can develop systems to gain favor based off others unfavorable outcomes. If a machine is legally set to jackpot a certain amount and you see that jackpot hit every week but suddenly its been 9 days? U kigjt test ur luck on it
Carrot Top looks like the love child of Phyllis Diller and Danny Elfman
This is why I HATE casino blackjack. Everyone thinks you are "stealing their card" or ruining the game if you hit. Or they are mad because you aren't playing exact strategy. It's always a table full of sourpusses.
Yea every move you make it seems like someone has something to say about it. Thing is, there is such thing as “perfect strategy” in blackjack that these people follow religiously. Sad thing is even following this strategy gives you less than 1% advantage but 🤷 I guess they figure it adds up.
I just tell them that it's my money and I'll do whatever I want and if they don't like it, too bad. Actually I only play poker these days.
Many years ago I was playing black jack and apparently was “anchor” position, well I hit on my hand and the whole table, total strangers got mad at me because the dealer would have got my card and would have busted and we all would have won. I’ve never been to a black jack table since. Now it’s craps or video poker but never again will I sit at a black jack table.
One of the reasons I quit playing blackjack. A lot of the people who are complaining don't even know what they are doing.
I used to deal cards at a casino. Exactly. It’s all random shit. I hate people. 😊
I met Scott briefly at the LV convention center. He was walking by and I asked for a picture. He was very kind and sweet. I'm a fan of the man.
Who tf is that
Gambling is like fighting Tyson. You may get in a lucky punch or two but you'll always get KO'd in the end.
MOT MYSELF AS MUCH TUFF GUY BEING IT
@@busterhikney6936shut up 😂
Who knew Carrot Top was such a nice, calm dude.
Me for twenty years 👍
A good amount of us
Yeah anyone who watched him back in the day. The dude was friggin adorable lol
@@chippab1407 i met him 23 years ago. Nicest guy in the world.
Anyone who’s not learning about him through Steveo’s podcast..
I used to be a dealer in Vegas and I want to explain why the casinos never lose.it comes down to the amount of people playing and the fact that they have budgets compared to their opponent (the casino) that doesn’t. Those games very slightly favor the casinos (less than one percent in almost every game) but at the end of the day they still favor the casino. Have 500 players at a time and that half a percent advantage means they’re winning 2-3 hands every minute. From an individual level the casino wins because the game ends when you stop it. When you turn $100 into $200 people get this invincible feeling like they can do it again so they keep playing or come back again at a later date. Eventually since the odds are in the casinos favor they will lose and all the casino has to do is keep playing until that happens. Sure there’s a fair chance that the person who lost their hundred could put in another hundred and win their original hundred back but typically that first hundred was their budget so they won’t do that. The games are fairly even (again, it’s typically less than 1 % advantage) so players don’t feel like they’re getting robbed when they play and they really aren’t which leads them to come back but when you have those odds on such a large scale it’s hard to lose money. If you really want to break even while gambling, take advantage of players cards and get your free drinks, your free rooms, dinners, movies and everything else they offer. Take advantage of it and most importantly enjoy yourself. When you gamble at a casino look at it as paying for entertainment, not competing for a payday.
If you struggle with gambling addiction and find yourself in a casino but have a moment of clarity, talk to a Pitt boss about it. The casinos make enough money off people enjoying themselves, they don’t want to take your rent money away from you or food out of your mouth. As a dealer I was always in reach of pamphlets on how to get help with your addiction but you’d have to ask before I give you one (so I don’t offend anyone by calling them an addict). I will always remember this one lady who lost around $500 at my table and then told me “I need to get that back, it’s my rent money” before waking to the cage to ask for a loan. It breaks my heart to see so please if you find yourself in that position, ask for help. The casino doesn’t want to ruin your life they want to make it more fun, the same as any other entertainment industry.
I’m sure I wasn’t perfectly accurate in what I said but I’m just letting you know what I observed while dealing in Vegas. Good luck everybody!
P.S. the dealer wants the player to win. The casino pays them hourly no matter what but if the player is winning they’re more likely to tip. Feel free to ask the dealers advice and 99% of the time they’ll be telling you what the best strategy is. Don’t forget to tip them even if it’s a few bucks.
THIS.
Everything I ever won from a casino, even if I cashed out and left, I ended up going right back in later and giving it all back over to them. You don't win money from a casino. You simply hold their money for them temperarily.
@@dropfry like I said... treat it as paying for entertainment, not a way to make money. If you want to come out somewhat on top get a players card. Depending on how much you gamble you’ll get discounted if not free rooms and some nice steak dinners ( and more). If you’re not enjoying it, don’t play.
TMI
Great inside info! Thanks
I love Carrot Top. Not for his humor but the fact that he's made nine figures without hurting anyone
wow i honestly thought he would be broke. had no idea he was makin that kinda money. 70 mil net worth lol
@@jaytroll188 the thing is that number hasn't been updated in like a decade. It's probably way more by now because of his workload
He’s prolly in the same boat as what Bill Maher said about his money “I have no ex wives, no kids, I don’t gamble, he said he drinks a little and smokes weed and most of the time the weed is given to him. “ personally as much of a headache as they can be at times I’d choose my family over millions any day.
carrot top is a person too
...and he's also lived in his FL home (his main pad outside Vegas) for a LONG time now.
9 months sober for me. I enjoy your casts. Thank you.
Good work, because it is... work.
Almost to that year, trust me the milestone is worthy.
Awesome. I quit on Jan 2, 2018. Just about to celebrate my 4 year.
@@rickitynick4463 congratulations to both of you! Stay strong
Good for you!
Keep going!
Poor carrot top looks like a tortured soul. Love him
The dude probably gets laid all the time. I don't see why he should be
I adore Carrot Top! His Vegas show is laugh out loud from start to finish 🤣
I wanna quit gambling myself need some prayers yalls . I need help
Praying now.✝️
Uhh. Don’t gamble.
Get to a GA meeting, bro.
Maybe do something that will actually work instead of praying?
You need to accept the fact that you lost, that money is gone, and you will never win it back. You can never truly move on until admit this to your self.
Not gonna lie looking at this guy’s face, I would’ve guessed about 20 other things I would’ve assumed he was addicted to before I got to gambling
Man, Carrot Top sure doesn't look like he's doing that good health-wise. Man, he's looking used-up -- if you ask me.
@@PoeLemic He's 57! Tell me what year will it be when u turn 57? And will u look as good and be relevant as CT? Most at 57 are getting ready to be 60. And haven't left the House in a month. The odds are you'll be one of them. I doubt if you'll even have Hair by then. I hope u remember this day.
Hes old. And he fake tanned alot too, not good for your skin
@@TheFn414 Looks only matter to people derive all their self worth from how they look. These types can't be trusted and use lying as a means of survival on a daily basis. Copies of an Imitation of a copy of an Imitation. Carrot Top is an Original.
You ever want the table to yourself split kings.
It's funny how people complain about other players. In the long run it makes no difference what other people do at the BJ table. They could hit on 18 get a 3 but then that makes you get the 10 when you double down on 11 otherwise you would have got the 3 giving you 14. What other people do could hurt you or help you. I counted cards and played probably 2000+ hours of blackjack. I know the odds.
Guys having an exciting game of poker among good friends *Steveo hitting his 2nd NOS canister while still holding his breath* "Guys, seriously, you have a severe, unhealthy addiction.. no offense"
😆 🤣 I love this podcast man one of the best
"I sat down at a texas holdem table at the commerce and people where mad because I hit" I almost fell out of my chair laughing at that one.
been in casino lots of time but never played Black Jack because i know even if its not rigged the Dealer always have the edge so 1 time i sit and was dealt 10 h 3 s and i said Hit m....guy besides goes berserk,lady on my left give me the devil eye,of course i bust 23 and he cried about me stealing his card...never played a hand of BJ again in my life in a casino
Texas Holdem is absolutely based on skill. Having said that, there’s certainly luck involved, which is why poor players can win on any given night. Additionally, if you do something wrong (play poor cards against a raise, call large bets on gut shot straight draws, etc), you are losing money mathematically to the other player. You can still win any given hand, but over time those strategies will lose. Therefore, it doesn’t make sense for other players to say “what are you doing, that’s wrong” and so on because you’re playing a losing strategy against them, they should be friendly and congratulate you when you do win.
I clicked on this video because I thought Carrot top was being interviewed, but I was just Steve-o interrupting the whole time.
I understood the addictive nature of gambling the first time I sat at a Texas hold em table…your body gets flooded with adrenaline whether you win or lose and you don’t have to do anything but sit at a table with your money in the middle. As a stunt artist I’m sure you can understand the addictive quality of adrenaline flooding your system again and again. And yes there is definitely skill involved in poker. It’s a game of skill not just chance, with many levels of play.
The Incredible Burt Wonderstone was the movie! 😁
Such a underrated movie!!!!!
I remember being a kid and not caring much for carrot top but I guess I had my kid goggles on, he seems like a down to earth chill dude.
Such a nice guy. Met him once. He literally stopped flirting with a girl and just talked with me.
I was a dealer/pitboss at the Luxor in the 90's. The casino manager had so many DUI's and had killed so many people he actually lived in jail. Imagine being in charge of a billion dollar casino getting cavity searches twice a day
Carrot Top is a legit just a cool dude.
CT is a live cartoon character, he’s funny, quite unique and looks like the straw man without the metal. Rock on CT !
I love Carrot Top! No matter how many people crap on him and his act!
I’ve averaged $80 an hour over a 1000 hour sample size playing poker. It’s not all luck lol. There is a ton of skill involved.
Here’s the difference: in casino table games, you wager before you see your cards. In poker, you make financial decisions after the cards come out. If you make better decisions than the other guy, you win over time. Simple as that.
Poker and Horseracing handicapping gives the smarter gambler a very big edge. For sure.
The best part is when Steve starts talking about the movie with Jim Carrey and Carrot says he plays Chris Angel and Steve says no, and then says Jim Plays Chris Angel.
i think carrot top has been in every nightmare i have ever had
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Pretty honest of Carrot Top to speak out against the casinos considering they have been putting food on his table for the last 20-30 year’s.
He's got f-you money now
A lot of good points made in such a short time. I never bring more than $40 or I will want to stay forever, more often when I bring $40 I have a better time and usually come out in the green. Second, I love when I am able to take someone's card on blackjack, and they usually just say "you got me haha" being from the midwest. Third, Vegas is a money trap. Both times I have gone I never came out postive but with legal weed, public drinking, free drinks while gambling, it's a great time regardless.
Steve o has people on to talk about himself. Classical
Where tf I been? Haven’t seen Carrot Top in what feels like forever
Don't ever disrespect me lookin like you give carrots TOP!! SHEESH
Talk for a few minutes with Carrot Top on Radio Row at the Super Bowl. Seemed really down to earth.
Damn Carrot Top is such a great interviewer
I used to work for the corporation that owned Luxor. I would sometime drive the company vehicle to do some work at Luxor and behind hotel There are the loading docks (at the bottom of the hotel). There were some parking spots back there. There is one with a sign saying it’s reserved for CT. Knowing he is not there until the evening, so it was available, I would park in his spot.
That’s it. Very exciting story.
"where you in that movie?"
"Nah"
😒😭
It’s called “ The incredible Burt Wonderstone” not “Abra Kadabra” lol
Carrot looks tired. I hope he is happy. He has made lots of people laugh for many years.
Steve O will never be accused of being a deep thinker or well read.
THIS. holy f. i’m honestly not seeing his draw at all. he’s kind of a jerk too.
Or his co-host
Or being Aids free
Carrot Top " I dont gamble"...then Steve O talk for 7 minutes on gambling...can almost see Carrot Top ask himself what he is even doing there...Steve - let the guest speak!
Hilarious! Carrot Top doesn't like crowds! Lol
Who does?
This dude is unmistakable. I don't blame him for not being a crowd guy. Even Tom Cruise can probably slide by unnoticed with a baseball cap and shades, but not Carrot Top.
Not probably, Tom Cruise is literally 5'6". If he wears a hat and sunglasses, and walks around without security, hed look like a every other midget walking the planet.
Lmao. Didn’t know he was that short
Carrot top is incorrect. I know for a fact Chris angel lived in a massive suite at Luxor while doing show for at-least 2 years
I remember being home sick in elementary school and seeing him on Regus and Kathy Lee doing his gig.
Burt Wonderstone
look at carrot top 😂
He kinda looks like “it” 😅
The more I listen to Carrot Top the more I like him.
3:00 this hit hard
4:10 - Same reason why doctors will still smoke and eat tons of junk food despite knowing how horrible it is for you.
Hard to resist temptation sometimes.
Steve-O made fun of casino employees gambling when they get off of work, but he gambled away his paycheck from the casino app lol
I always liked CT. Remember seeing him in the 90’s in Englewood NJ sitting around 10th a little to the side and he threw out one shirt and I reached up with one hand and caught it. We still have it all these years later too!
RUclips is getting a bit ridiculous with the amount of censorship. Comments as well, I can't count how many seemingly innocuous comments I've had disappear for no apparent reason. That aside, if I had a thousand views per day on one of my videos I'd call that a high performer!
Theres definitely strategy in poker buddy lol
I know, like if you don’t know about something don’t “bluff” at it.
@KingC89 duh??? Doesnt mean there's isnt strategy in the game
I had someone tell me that same nonsense when I was playing blackjack. They said I took their card. Honestly, I felt like that was the craziest thing anyone’s ever said to me. Gamblers suck. Terrible addiction.
Everybody at a blackjack table is always miserable. It's a much more fun crowd at the craps table.
It's because if your playing basic strategy you should know when to hit and stay but I say it's my money so fuc off
I'd just be like "Do you know how Blackjack works or are you under the impression this is a scripted play?"
All the card games are stupid. Poker is the only exception because you are playing other humans who are stupid. You just have to be less stupid.
There is such a thing as basic strategy in blackjack that dictates when you should hit and when you should hold. You likely made a mistake that caused both you and the other player to lose, when the correct call would have seen you both win.
He aged really bad and his young carrots 🥕.. and Steve changed his life
Man, Carrot Top sure doesn't look like he's doing that good health-wise. Man, he's looking used-up -- if you ask me.
The Movie is called The Incredible Burt Wonderstone also starring the great Steve Buscemi.
jesus, i didnt realize carrot top is pushing 60 years old
Carrot Top is starting to look like Ron Jeremy.
Carrot Top is actually a really cool dude.
Assistant dude says there is no strategy only luck, then says yes some
Are consistently beating out 25k players.
They are not playing the game you play when you sit down opposite a dealer at a casino though. If you are playing a dealer, the house has an advantage of 2-2.5% per hand. It is blind luck of the draw, with a tiny bit of strategy.
If you are playing other people in a poker room, the house takes 10% or so of the pot per hand up to $4-5, or a set percentage of tournament winnings. You are paying rent.
The house always wins.
Big homie is a cross between the cowardly lion and Jackie Stallone🦁
Carrot top is almost unrecognizable. My lord
Steve O loves to talk about himself to his guests.
Wow these facts about steve-o are amazing, carrot top is a good interviewer.
I’d rather gamble than do all the pain that Stevo is done to himself , to each their own
he's off the juice
In the movie Casino, Deniro says it in plain English. He says the longer they play the more they loose. The odds NEVER change. If the odds never change eventually we get it all.
Abracadabra? The incredible Burt Wonderstone 😅
Gambling addiction has the highest rate of suicide over all addictions. Horrible.
I used to work for a "high end" ceiling fan company that sold $2k-$3k ceiling fans that cost $35 to make. Consumers never win the game of Capitalism.
I’m not a gambler and I have only been to Vegas once and it was for work. The first thing my driver said to me was “All of this was not built on the house losing”.
Carrot top is such an interesting guest that we end up talking about degenerate gambling and blowing our brains out!
I feel the same about gamblers getting mad at others at the table. Only had it happen to me in poker, but quite a few times. I'd play a shit hand but hit the river card and win, and guys would get sooo mad and tell me I didn't know how to play poker.... but I was winning lol. It's gambling
those are my preferred to troll by bluffing them later on and showing the bluff,raising them so they fold etc...love to play with those insecure clueless dude
I was a bartender on a slow morning shift. I never made a dime because every tip I got went straight into the machines.
Came here for carrot top. Listeneded to steve-o and his partner go on and on about themselves.
Carrot top looks like ginger lion
i love how steve completely ignores everyone's suggestions when trying to explain the Burt Wonderstone movie.
Is it the hairspray that made carrot age so fast I mean I’m not one to judge but damn he hit the wall … I would still hit it hahaha
My favorite part of poker is going to the local casino where the deck is rigged in my favor, and win, while pretending that it’s real.
Yo Steve what’s up. Recovered addict here myself. So I say this lightly. What a shame you’ve got the best drugs session bus ever and you’re sober. The thoughts never leave you do they?. Keep going on the sobriety bro. It’s much better than the alternative is isn’t it?
It is. I don't know why I lost so many years to booze. I'm happy I've learned to enjoy being sober and having maybe a beer or 2, not all 6... in 2 hours.
If you do drugs or pills in 2022 you’re an idiot. They putting fentanyl in everything.
You're not recovered I thought
@@derekthemasta A) you don’t know me. B) 12 years no usage, C) saying you’re still recovering after such a long period of time only feeds the money making machine that is the ‘program’.
Remember, there is no money to be made in a cure, only in treatment.
The house has an edge in any game in which you are playing against them such as blackjack or roulette, as the famous saying goes, “the house always wins.”
However in poker you are playing against other players so there is definitely a lot of skill involved mixed in with some luck of course.
I didn't know Bob Dylan was on psychedelics again.
Not Steve-O actually believing dan balzarians fake poker lore
People that don't gamble don't understand the value behind gambling. Sure we want to win but we're paying to have fun and relax. Winning is a bonus. Maybe I have a gambling problem haha.
I’m gonna tell my kids that’s Richard Simmons
Blackjack is susceptible to card counters, but counting cards is not illegal.
If people are smart about it, they know when to move on
My dad has a friend that has always gone to Vegas every year and always brings back thousands. No doubt that he is a card counter, but he has figured it out, and always comes back in the positive.
That thumbnail is a jump scare
Technically Blackjack is table vs the dealer. That's why ppl get mad when you get "their" card. But everyman for himself I say lol. Carrot Top's right!
Same with craps. The don’t come bet will get people riled up against you, but it’s my play often lol
Carrot top looks like he has a dip in
In Australia gambling is legal obvs but if you work for the casino you aren't allowed to gamble there so I'm surprised they are allowed in vegas
Hold up I'm really getting old. That's carrot top? No way
It's not just the casino winning money from people, commercial real estate is one of the biggest money laundering enterprises ever.
The movie they're talking about in the beginning is the Incredible Burt Wonderstone
Quit gambling a year ago. What a nightmare
