A brick is typically a low card which does not complete any possible straight or flush draws. It is often used interchangeably with the term blank. For example, if the flop texture in Hold’em is KQJ two-tone, an unsuited Deuce (two) on the turn might be referred to as a brick. It doesn’t make any higher pair possible or complete any available straight and flush draws. The term brick can also be used to indicate that our draw didn’t get there.
