Pupo, playing poker with Francesco Totti, recognized the gaze of a gambling addict in the former footballer
Abundant is worried about Francesco Totti. The singer, who has never hidden his addiction to gambling, recognized the characteristics of the subject in the former Roma captain suffering from gambling addiction. Pupo, in an interview with the National newspaper, said he played poker with Ilary Blasi’s ex-husband during a charity event.
Francesco Totti in recent weeks has been at the center of a case involving the anti-money laundering. According to the leaks published in La Verità, a message emerges from the bank’s SOS: “massive investment of financial resources in betting“. Totti would be at the center of a round of transfers which, through a figurehead, would end up in the coffers of the casinos in Monte Carlo and Las Vegas. The Truth also reports the rumors of a friend of Totti, or a person close to him, who said : “He has a strong love for Vegas casinos“, referring to the former footballer.
Today, the National Newspaper published the opinion of Pupo, a singer who never hid his gambling habit in the past. A demon that drove the artist into six zeros in debt. In his autobiographical novel titled Bank only! Diary of a player named Pupothe singer also narrates some particularly sad moments experienced because of gambling.
“I played poker with Francesco Totti only once, during a solidarity tournament organized as a fundraiser for the earthquake victims of L’Aquila which was broadcast on La7“, said the singer of Su di Noi. “I remember looking into his eyes I immediately realized that he was very passionate about the game“. Pupo concluded with his deduction: “In my opinion, Totti is a good, sensitive and generous person, all characteristics which, unfortunately, are almost always present in people affected by gambling addiction“.
After the news released by La Verità, Ilary Blasi’s lawyer issued a statement that exonerated Francesco Totti’s ex-wife. “With regard to the allegations made by some media, the lawyer Alessandro Simeone, in the interest of Mrs. Ilary Blasi, specifies – in a note – that his client knew nothing of the money movements to and from abroad highlighted in the investigation by the newspaper La Verit and reported as suspects by the competent bodies. It is therefore impossible – continues the lawyer on behalf of Ilary Blasi – that the news of her has been leaked by Mrs. Blasi, as maliciously hypothesized in the clumsy attempt to involve her in events to which she is extraneous. On the other hand, the accounts reported belonged exclusively to Mr. Totti and his wife, with the trust that distinguishes any solid marriage relationship, never carried out any type of check on them“.
