This would depend on a huge variety of factors.
Are we talking about a dive or a high class place? What is the shift? Obviously you would make a hell of a lot more on a Saturday night then you would say an early Monday morning (bars are 24 hours in Vegas). Also, are the cocktail waitresses required to tip you out? Some places require them to give you a certain amount like say $20 each, other places do not have this requirement and at some places they do it even if not required to do so. Also, do you have regular customers? If so are the regulars generious or cheap? Is it a place people go for dates? Guys on a date like to tip big because they fear looking cheap. Also, can you control the amount of liquor in the drinks you make? In some places the amount of liquor is highly controled (in some states by law) in others you are allowed to have an "Irish wrist" which means you can make the drinks stonger which (usually) means bigger tips. Are celebrities and/or other rich people likely to be there? If so they are going to be one extreme or the other they are either going to tip huge or very little, some are cheap bastards! haha Are people just ordering individual drinks or running up a big tab? Big tabs=big tips (usually) Are they getting drunk? Drunks usually tip bigger. Did anyone make some sort of scene or ruckas? If so, some times people tip real big as an "apology" for said ruckas. Guys will usually tip really big if their wife or gf does something embarrassing. haha Are the people there a big baller or at least pretending to be? Some of those pseudo rapper guys like to tip real big so they at least LOOK rich even though most of them are probably broke! haha Do you have a bar back working with you? If so. you are required (by the bar or at least by custom) to share some of your tips with your bar back(s).
I used to make about $100 to $200 a night. That was in a high class high volume place in Los Angeles. (Sorry not Vegas).
