Default Question on PokerStars Tourney dollars?

I won a seat in a satellite to the PokerStars $200+15 $350k guaranteed. It's my understanding that I can take the tourney dollars and play on any tournament table (sit n go's, satellites etc.) My question is this:
Would you recommend taking those tourney dollars and entering multiple sit n go's and satellites to build up a real dollar account, or just take my chances in Sunday's $350k guaranteed? My initial thought is I probably stand a better chance parlaying the tourney dollars since my SnG record is typically much better than my MTT record. Thoughts?

Look at the Tourny dollars like real money, period.

Would you pay $215 of your own money to play the tourney?
Or split it up and play SnGs and satellites?
Personally, I do better at SnGs than in big MTTs, so I would (and do) use the T-dollars that way.

Also, when you win the satellite, PStars automatically enters you into the big tourney. To get the T-dollars, you have to go to the Tourney page and unregister.
