We all know the scene…

You are in a tournament in your local poker room, and you go for it; you re-raise all in! Your opponent who has over half his chips in the middle goes into the tank for a minute, then another minute, then another minute…

Sigh.

Why do relatively simple decisions, that even a blindfolded chimp with a pencil in his teeth could conclude, become such a time-wasting, life-draining exercise in a live casino?

Nice comment. The solution is probably what you suggested - electronic timers on every table that the dealer automatically activates.
