In Game Live Betting and Halftime lines

[Archie]

who sets these lines? is it mostly computerized and algorithmic?

so do they take into account, if they have 70% of money on a big fav's spread, but 70% of money on the dog ml. when the dog leads by a decent amount at half time?

are they looking to balance the action out... minimized the middle, or just set a realistic line?

This weekend I bet a NBA halftime total (UNDER) at Ladbrokes that was 2 points better than the line at 5Dimes.

Ladbrokes had the "in play" total of 188.5 while 5Dimes had UNDER 94 at halftime which would have been 186.5

I'm finding value from some of the Aussie books with NHL totals as well, they are slow to move, especially sportsalive.

What were the odds at Ladbrokes for that total ? -120 or -110 ?
