Vegas workers depend on tips.  Tipping is more a part of the Vegas culture than it is at home.  Here is a site that sets some good guiderules.

Personally, I tip only a dollar per drink order.  I never feel forgotten.  I get alcohol and a bottle of water.  Generally, the waitress is back long before I want a second.
I leave $2 a day for the maid.  I think that they have the hardest job and are the hardest working.  I also like a good relationship with someone so close to my stuff.
In a restaurant I tip as we do at home but add in the cost of the meal the value of the coupon.  In a buffet I tip one dollar per person.
There are lots of discussions and debates on the boards.  Some overtip.  Some tip not at all.  
One good piece of advise is to have a few one dollar bills always at hand.  At table games, even live poker, you are allowed to tip with chips.
