I know a guy who after racking up 200k in profits playing poker here and online over a few years lost it all in Vegas in a few weeeks. There are many people in Vegas who make their living preying on "professional gamblers" trying to make it big in Vegas. The city is crawling with hustlers of all walks of life.
Even if you are good enough at poker to make money, the clubs will suck a 21 year old dry. Vegas outside of the strip can also be an extremely boring town. It's a sprawling, and in places deserted, suburb that is painfully hot at times.
If your plan is to play reasonable poker and live modestly on your winnings...well good luck with that. Even then, there are less inhospitable places to do that, so I'm not sure why you'd want to do that in the first place.
