flip it over
Hello guys! :)
I would like you help to understand the expression: "flip it over".
I could not understand the context if I say: "if doesn't fit, just flip it over."
Can someone help me?
Thank you! :)

Flip it over = turn it over, like you would for an playing card (ace, jack) in poker or a turtle lying on his back.

The phrase means, "turn it so the bottom side is facing up".

If you flip something, you turn it over quickly one or more times, and if something flips, it turns over quickly:
I flipped the book (over) to look at the back cover.
I lost my place in my book when the pages flipped over in the wind.
