Do 'tigrinho' à Ucrânia: brasileiro troca vício em apostas por alistamento na guerra

Brazilian Thiago Moraes da Silva Moita, 35, traded his life as an electronics distributor in Iguape, São Paulo, for the battlefield between Russia and Ukraine. Burdened by over R$340,000 due to a growing addiction to online gambling known as "tigrinho," he found in recruitment for the conflict an extreme chance to escape his debts and addiction. Moraes was born in Rio de Janeiro and built a stable life in Iguape. However, his involvement with virtual games led to an unsustainable financial situation. Pressed by debt collection and battling his own compulsive behavior, classified by the World Health Organization as gambling addiction, he decided to voluntarily enlist to fight in Eastern Europe. ➡️ Follow more news on our official website: https://recordtv.r7.com/balanco-geral Our Whatsapp: https://balancogeraltarde.r7.com/what... and https://balancogeralmanha.r7.com/what...
