Renting a care is a $20-25 a day expense. If you going to vegas with multiple four figures and staying off the strip, unless you have drivers licence issues, stick a crowbar in your bankroll and rent a car. Vegas in VERY auto-centric. If you're on or near the Strip (as far as, say, the Hard Rock or Rio), you can get by with cabs/shuttles. But any further than that, get a car.

Dont you need to be 25 to rent a car? Im 21.

Most major car rental companies (including Hertz, Avis, etc.) will rent to people 21-24 for a surcharge, typically $25/day. Regardless, renting a car for six months isn't the most economical choice for anyone. If you can't afford to buy a cheap car on Craigslist and insure it, you can't afford to move to Vegas and play poker for six months.

Well its a bit embarrassing which is why I avoided it, I never learned how to drive and never plan on it, Im hiring a driver in 6 months but for now I have to get by.

I'm guessing you're from a great big city back east. You may find that out west, you largely have to take care of your own mobility by yourself. e.g. if you want something and it's not right next to you, you're going to have to do some travelling to get it. That goes for everything from food to toilet paper to socks. After a couple weeks you may find that learning to drive and buying a cheap beater car is the path of least resistance.
