tipping comment

In various tourist publications (What's on in Las Vegas, to mention one), there is a page listing "suggested" tips. If you followed all the "suggestions" you could easily exceed $50 a day.
I've read that if you win a slot jackpot tipping the slot attendent (and "of course" the security guard who checks that he is paying you your fair share) is also suggested--why? (If the attendent said "this machine is 'hot'" and I won, no question, he deserves a tip.)
[I was on line where a man ahead of me bought $9 of magazines and newspapers, he gave the clerk a $10 bill and the $1 change he returned as a tip.]
Tipping has gotten out of hand.
Any comments?
