I'm already a member of freesportsbet but I'm a total newbie in betting. What exactly do you bet on for a money line?

You are betting on the team to win the game. For Money Line bets are putting more money on the favorite, but winning less. The opposite is true for the Underdog.

Example:
Orlando Magic +425 (Underdog)
Philadelphia 76ers -550 (Favorite)

The following are in one of two bets:
You can put $100 on the Magic, and if they win you get $425. Your payout is higher than your bet because there is a smaller chance the Magic will win.
Or, you put a $550 bet on the 76ers, and if they win you get $100. Because the 76ers are likely to win, you must wager more to win less.

Of course, you don't have to wager bets in $100 increments, you may use a smaller amount (I personally use $10 as a single bet). But the scaling works much the same, I can bet $10 on the Magic to win $42.50, or I would bet $55 on the 76ers to win $10 (or bet $10 to win <$2).

Both formulas at 94 1H/186 game BUT I don't trust anything I have on the Magic anymore. They're in total tank mode and their totals have been all over the place lately.

ETA: I meant both formulas have 94 for 1H. They're at 184.5 and 187.5 for game

I had a $10 free bet on sportsbook so I parlayed the Heat (-15.5)and the Clippers (-15).

Thoughts?

my strategy with FSB is to get in as many bets as possible to roll over the account several times per night

got a 1H parlay of 2 NCAA games that tip at 7 and should be graded by 8 to then turn around and use again

and, yes, I am at 50 cents still
