    This is almost an impossible question as well. But I'll give it a try.

    If someone that had been diagnosed with pathological gambling and had quit completely, was still so obsessed with it that they had to make one more wager, then they almost certainly still have a problem.

    Honestly, what's the point of a single wager??? The issue would be that they were still thinking about it. And in fact that is the real the real factor that would mark a secession of their addiction, if they stopped THINKING about gambling. Whether or not they wager is irrelevant.

    P.S. How can you not have a time frame? Everything in life occurs over some period of time. A life, a Year, A day. I am confused.
    You asked about setting Limits, but you did not specify over what period of time. How can you not be able to define your own question?
