No-show or change flight ahead of time?

I am booked to fly JFK-SFO the morning after my int'l flight arrives JFK. (Different reservations)
Due to a schedule change on my int'l itinerary I will now arrive JFK the afternoon of my JFK-SFO flight.
Should I change my JFK departure by 24 hours? Change fee $150.
Or should I show up at the UA counter 12 hours late and see what happens.
If I change my reservation by 24 hours, I will standby for an evening departure from JFK.

My only experience with this was last year in MCO. I arrived late on another airline missing my UA flight. UA booked me on their next flight out no charge. Again different reservations. I did part with a GTEM in this case.
