I believe the answer is:
aces
<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">high cards</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for aces that I've seen before include "winning points" , "They're high and low on cards" , "Experts (in their field)" , "Two will make deuce" , "Ones or elevens in cards" .)
