I'm not a huge poker player but yeah that always happens with any sort of game or sport in a movie. They dumb it down or explain things way too much. Personally I loved those scenes, it was great to see that in a Bond movie instead of another balls out action scene but when Mathias is explaining what a tell is I was cringing. People generally know what bluffing or a tell is in poker, you don't have to explain it two or three times.
Small pet peeve in what was my favourite Bond movie though.
