How do I avoid this

I am in the middle of laying my floor and it is going well except for occasionally I will have one board that does not "sit" right like the other boards, check out the pic. I can't seem to get the board to match up to the others, any suggestions as to what's going wrong??

Thanks

Don't use the board, seriously. Poorly milled boards should be "culled out".
Is this flooring pre-finished? I can't tell from the picture.

It's not pre-finished, it's Owens Plank.

That will be sanded down, when you get the sander on it.

IT may have a loose tongue. Watch for these as you nail and remove them. If there is no movement;;; then sand it down. If there is movement, you may end up wishing you removed it..
