Solution

Call notifyDataSetChanged() method after changing your data. This android function notifies the attached observers that the underlying data has been changed and any View reflecting the data set should refresh itself.

public void setCasinoHistoryArrayList(ArrayList<CasinoHistory> casinoHistories)
{
    this.casinoHistoryArrayList = casinoHistories;
    notifyDataSetChanged();
}
