This is a great deal that allows you to have 2 nights in Dublin and then 6 nights in Las Vegas, especially as flights are with Virgin Airlines. You will fly with a budget airline to Dublin (or you could use Avios to fly to Dublin cheaply from LHR), where you'll spend 2 nights, then fly from Dublin to Las Vegas (with a short stop in LGW). On the return leg you will fly direct from Las Vegas to London on 26th April, arriving on 27th April early morning. As you then don't depart LGW until the 28th April you will collect your bags, and leave the airport. You can then spend the night in London (or go home) and circumstances may mean you never make your flight back to Dublin on 28th April (wink, wink). Should you know it's unlikely you won't be taking the flight on the 28th April, don't tell the airline.
This is a good way of getting to Vegas in April, currently flights from London for this period are over £500 alone. You don't have to spent 2 nights in Dublin, as there are oodles of flights from LGW to Dublin, you could go a few days before or just 1 day before, it is entirely up to you how long you choose to spend in Dublin. There are lots of dates where these flights work, just have a play around with the multi-stop flight function if you want to change dates.
You'll spend 2 nights in the Belvedere Hotel in Parnell Square in Dublin - an ideal location, where buses frequently run from the airport to the city centre. A great, centrally located hotel to enjoy a couple of days in Dublin.
In Las Vegas you'll spend 6 nights at the Luxor (the price below INCLUDES resort fees as you will see from the screen shots). This is what makes this a great deal as most other deals to Vegas don't include this and it can quickly put £100+ onto the price. Off the strip you can certainly get cheaper but it's up to you if you want to amend the hotel.

Whilst it is unlikley that you will have repercussions that can not be guaranteed you have agreed to abide by the terms and conditions of the ticket that you have bought that agrees that you will take the final leg of your journey which is back to Ireland. The airlines hate people doing this as they price Ireland departures differently to those from London by using this method which is known as a hidden city ticket you can make savings of 50%. There is a lot of discussion on this at various sites on the web and what the arline can and may do this could include charging your credit card the cost of the flight if your flight returned only to London, though this is unlikely. They could cancel any flyer points that you have and they could even sue you for breaking their T&C's these are unlikely but possible. In the US airlines have banned people from travelling with them for doing this.
The most common problem people have is when they want their luggage to not continue on the last leg (short checking) as the OP says if you have 24 hours between flights they will give your luggage and the other way round it is to fly in to say Heathrow and out of Gatwick as there is no luggage transit between the airports or take only hand luggage. Of course if there is a problem and the flight from LAS to LGW cancelled then they may fly you back to Dublin via another route via say Frankfurt or Paris then you are stuck.
I am not saying you wont pull it off but you have to be aware that whilst the savings are great that it is not without risk (however small) and that you are breaching the terms and conditions of your ticket, that said I would do this in a heartbeat but I would need to save at least £500 to make it worth the risk and the hassle for me.
No doubt I will get some incoming on this as it is not what people want to hear but I have put quite a lot of research into this and flying economy I decided that it was not worth the risk or the trouble of having to go to Dublin however nice it is when that is not where I really want to go.
