Why a Toolchest session disappears when you change the date filter
Find an overnight session by its start date, combine game and strategy filters, and understand which records contribute to the Sessions overview.
A session missing from a filtered list is not necessarily a lost session. In Tink’s Toolchest, the Sessions date filter uses when a session started. The overview’s session count and profit also follow the filtered list. Changing the date, game or strategy can therefore change both the visible cards and the totals above them without deleting anything.
This guide covers the private Sessions view verified in the released iOS 2.4.1 implementation. It is separate from Community’s all-time shared statistics. If your installed version has different controls, check its version before following these steps.
Begin with Clear all
Open Sessions and inspect the filters before editing or deleting a record. When a filter is active, Clear all removes the date, game and strategy restrictions together. Read the unfiltered list first and identify the session you are looking for by its date, game and recorded details.
Clearing a filter changes what you see; it does not erase saved history. If a session appears after Clear all, the next step is to identify the restriction that excluded it, not to enter a duplicate session to replace it.
An overnight session belongs to its starting day
The selected range includes the full first and last calendar days. A start on the selected final day is included; a start at midnight beginning the following day is outside it.
For a hypothetical example, a roulette session begins on November 13 at 11:40 p.m. and ends November 14 at 12:20 a.m. Selecting November 14 alone does not include that session. Select November 13, or a range covering both dates, to find it. The date on its session card is also its start date.
There is a second distinction: the list is ordered by session end time, newest first. Placement near the top does not mean the session started on the same calendar day as the session above it. Read the card’s date instead of using list position as a date filter.
These examples assume the same local time context. When investigating a session recorded while traveling, retain the original date information rather than changing a record merely to make a filter match.
Add one restriction at a time
- Choose All dates to select the intended date range. Check that the session’s starting day is included.
- Choose All games, then the game you want. Date and game restrictions both apply.
- After selecting a game, use All strategies if you want to narrow the list further. Available named strategies come from sessions for that game within the selected date range.
- Read the resulting cards and count before interpreting the profit figure.
Selecting a different game clears the strategy selection. Clearing the game also clears its strategy restriction. A strategy that is not offered for the selected date range may simply have no matching session there. Broaden the dates or clear the filters before assuming the strategy or session was removed.
Each filter has a clearing control as well. Use that when you want to remove only one restriction; use Clear all when you need an unambiguous starting point.
The overview is a subtotal of what is visible
The SESSIONS PLAYED count is the number of matching session records, and PROFIT adds their recorded net amounts. Neither figure is permanently fixed to your complete history while filters are active.
Imagine three fictional records: roulette +$20, roulette −$35 and baccarat +$10. With all three included, the count is 3 and profit is −$5. Filtering to roulette leaves 2 sessions and −$15. Narrowing further to a range containing only the +$20 roulette session leaves 1 and +$20. All three totals can be correct for their respective selections.
That last positive subtotal does not turn the full −$5 history into a profit. Keep the selected dates, game and strategy with any note you make about a total. Do not compare a filtered figure with an all-history figure as if they described the same records.
Check whether a CURRENT session is included
The Sessions view can include an in-progress baccarat, roulette or craps session when that game has recorded history. Its card is marked CURRENT, and it can contribute to the matching overview. The count is therefore not necessarily a count of completed sessions only.
If you are reconciling completed play, inspect the CURRENT label and the individual amounts. Do not assume a private Sessions subtotal must equal a Community figure: Community sharing and private/current records have different scopes. The Community summary guide explains its separate denominator, and the sharing guide explains what becomes public.
If Clear all still does not find the session
Confirm that you are viewing the intended installation and that the session was recorded there. Note the app version, game, approximate starting time and whether the session was completed or current. Contact support with those details if needed; avoid deleting other sessions, clearing app data or inventing a replacement record while investigating.
Tink’s Toolchest helps organize recorded sessions. A positive filtered subtotal is a description of selected past records, not evidence that a strategy will win next time or remove a game’s house edge. Gambling can lose money; filtering cannot change that risk. For another distinction in recorded results, see observed spins versus played wagers.
