If I want to start playing a big Sunday tournament every week on a 3k roll, does it make more sense to buy in direct or sat in?

After trying to rebuild my roll through the $6 and $11 HU SNGs, I finally gave up and deposited $500 on Stars today through Epassporte. To celebrate I gave the $50 rebuy a go. 1st prize is 6.7K. This is for the CL with 12 players left:

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t2000 (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

UTG (t65823)
MP (t28270)
CO (t169033)
Button (t73210)
SB (t87544)
Hero (t65304)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to t6000</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t18000</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to t168933</font>, Hero calls t47204 (All-In).

Flop: (t234537) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

Turn: (t234537) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

River: (t234537) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

Final Pot: t234537

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
Hero has As Ac (flush, ace high).
CO has Qs Qd (full house, queens full of threes).
Outcome: CO wins t234537. </font>

Yes it is. My roll is 3k but I make roughly 200/day. So do I suck it up and buy straight in or play sats?

They have other fights as well. I dunno who else is fighting, if you checked UFC sitw you'd prob find out.

Oh and you can always download it after its been shown if you don't care about watching it when its first aired

And as you should know, if you're a winning player your bankroll only needs to be 1 buyin so long as you can easily replenish your roll. Bankroll requirements also don't really apply to infrequent events.

Edit: Ill probably end up buying straight in just because I'm much too lazy to actively play the sats.

if you can say that 'if your a winning player you bankroll only needs to be one buyin' , then its the same for a losing player. because both have great ROR

You aren't ruined though if your roll is easily replenished. The difference between a winning and a losing player with 1 buyin is that the winning player can reasonably expect to make back more than his buyin.
