It doesn't.

If you are in the money by more than a penny with a call (above the strike price) it gets exercised - you get the stock.

If you are in the money by more than a penny with a put (below the strike price)., the buyer of the put can decide to give up the stock or not.

Several years ago I had sold 10 puts on Amat 11.00's - the stock closed at 10.97 - I was only assigned 600 of the 1000 shares (10 put contracts).
