It certainly will soak.

Initially, watch what you're doing. There might be water soluble ink or paint somewhere on the wood (we have no description of the wood from you); the ink would show up in the water... if that is happening, set the would piece in a large water pan or whatever you're using, and tilt that. Have constantly running water if you can manage that, so the ink in the water is constantly washing away. [This paragraph ONLY APPLIES if there's ink or paint on that board, bleeding into the soaking water. Don't let this paragraph scare you.]

Soak it for a while... maybe even a couple of days. Change the water a few times.

Try not to tear the card as your impatient self tries to peel it off of the wood. Soak longer, be patient.

I'm curious... is the card attached to a small piece of wood, bottom half of the card stuck to the wood? I once bought a T213 like that, the card was glued to the wood with a non-water soluble glue... I had no success soaking it off, but I also didn't damage the card more than it already was.
