Poker Bricka
A “brick” or “blank” is a term used to describe a card that is meaningless. It helps no one’s hand and does not connect with any other cards.

A card that did not have an impact on the outcome of a particular hand or that is expected to have no impact on the outcome of a hand in progress, especially in reference to a face-up card dealt to a particular player rather than a community card. EXAMPLE: 'The flop was 7s-8s-Qd. The turn was a brick, and then a third spade hit on the river.'
So, if you felt like you had the best hand on the flop, then a brick on the turn won’t change your opinion about still having the best hand. For example: If you have an 8 and a 9 in your hand and the next card is a 2, this would be a brick since it does not help your hand.
