I agree with the obvious reasons, such as gambler's dispair, but I think there is another reason that the previous poster touched on.
People take seriously the "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" slogan. Many do things they would never do at home, especially things that violates their own moral codes. The first thing that comes to mind is the sex industry. A married man, for example, comes to Vegas, hires a prostitute, and realizes he has to go home and face his wife. This would probably never happen at home. Things like this can certainly lead to suicide. A strong religious person would succumb to even great dispair and possibly radical solutions such as suicide. Sometimes it does seem easier to die than face living.
