Is Narcissism good or bad?

[freeringo]

It is easy to form a God complex as a poker player, but lets try to remember that too much narcissism is bad in social groups.
A reasonable amount of narcissism is good for people when it comes
to relationships with others.
But when a pattern of grandiosity and a lack of empathy becomes
common, then narcissism becomes a disorder.

as an online poker player, i just dont care about hands anymore...you gotta learn to not care or you get too ticked when some retard sucks out on you on the river...the percentages online are way too swayed for me to care about losing a tourney or my stack at a cash table online. When will everyone realize that online poker is NOT real poker?

Besides lovemaking and singing in the shower, there aren’t many human activities where there is a greater difference between a person’s self-delusional ability and actual ability than in poker.

"...percentages online are way too swayed for me.."

is swayed the same as not mathmatically accurate?

thus making online poker,"NOT real poker". or am

i mis-reading your post.

Narcissism/lack of empathy and percentages being

swayed.
