How do I import poker sessions from CSV?

Export your existing sessions to a CSV with columns for date, game type, stakes, buy-in, cash-out, and venue, then import in StackEdge Pro under Settings → Import.

The free template linked above has every column pre-formatted.

Required CSV columns

Migration tips

Use consistent venue names. If you tagged the same room as "Hard Rock" sometimes and "Hard Rock Tampa" other times, the venue rollups will split them. Fix in the CSV before import.
Convert dates to YYYY-MM-DD. Avoids parsing ambiguity for European vs US date formats.
De-duplicate. If your spreadsheet has duplicate rows, the importer will flag them but you should remove them first.
Test with 5 rows first. Import a small sample, confirm everything looks right in StackEdge, then import the rest.

Frequently asked questions

How do I import poker sessions from CSV?

Export your existing sessions to a CSV with columns for date, game type, stakes, buy-in, cash-out, venue, and notes. Then import in StackEdge Pro under Settings → Import. StackEdge maps the columns automatically, validates each row, and imports your historical sessions in seconds.

What columns should the CSV have?

Required: date, game_type, stakes, buy_in, cash_out, venue. Optional: rebuys, end_time or duration, notes, sold_action_pct, sold_markup, backer_name. The free template at the link above is pre-formatted.

Can I import from Pokerbase, Poker Analytics, or Poker Bankroll Tracker?

Yes. Each app supports CSV export. Export from your current tracker, align the columns to the StackEdge template (the importer suggests mappings automatically), and run the import. Non-standard custom fields may require manual realignment.

Will my historical bankroll history come along?

Yes. StackEdge computes your bankroll trajectory from the imported sessions in chronological order. Make sure the date column is in YYYY-MM-DD or MM/DD/YYYY format and that no sessions are duplicated.

What if my spreadsheet has weird columns?

Email StackEdgePoker@gmail.com with a sample of the spreadsheet. We have helped players migrate from custom spreadsheets with non-standard tagging, and we can usually figure out the mapping in 10 minutes.
