What does the CONTAINS operand do in pfilters?

Can someone please explain to me how the CONTAINS operand works in pfilters? I had thought it was like a SQL "LIKE" comparator, but that doesn't seem to be correct.

Contains should function similarly to SQL LIKE command. What is the syntax you’re using? Are you URL encoding your pfilter value?

The documentation is here:
If I remember correctly, it functions similar to an "in." So contains ("ItemA", "ItemB", "ItemC") means if it's Item A, B or C it will filter.

Actually, no that's wrong. There's already an IN in pfilters. I'm not sure how contains functions.

I'm using the same syntax that I would on an "IN" or a "BETWEEN" both of which work fine for me.
{"column":"BorrowerLastName","operand":"IN","values":["Fuller","FULLER","fuller"]} works as expected
{"column":"BorrowerLastName","operand":"CONTAINS","values":["Fuller"]} returns no values.
