Actually, you're right. It's not a persona; it's his identity. What else would his identity be?I don't know if you could call it a persona, he just seems like an asshole. The kind of asshole who is all talk, no walk.
In the past, his identity was 'gamer'. He was a professional gamer. He saw himself as an authority in gaming. He bought a ridiculous amount gaming-related shit. But now he hates videogames. What would he turn to now? He's not a family man, he's not religious, he's not a patriot, he's not interested in politics or sports. He doesn't care about anything. Now, he is the 'underdog' who is looked down by everyone. He gets his comeuppance by grifting thousands of dollars from idiots. His acceptance of this role is demonstrated by his deranged begging.
