Why does it take the dealer almost 1:30 to finally show the flop?

Why the hell are they just sitting there for so long?
What is the dealer doing all this time? Flossing her teeth?

Because it´s a crucial hand. The audience can not lose that moment and of course to give some suspense to the moment after all it´s not everyday that the best poker player of the world get´s eliminated of the most prestigious poker tournament of the world.

It's just a way of building up the tension.

i dont know but i really dont like when the dealer takes a lot of time, because the tension you have in this moment is extreme and you just want to see the flop, turn and river as soon as possible.
