If it was repaired before head might have been warped and wasn't checked, poor quality gasket and or incorrect torque values. A warped head won't seal no matter what you do.

A head gasket can blow at any moment. If the engine gets too hot is can slow the gasket. It can also be a defect in the gasket that causes it to blow.
