I started with pot limit when i decided to start playing cash tables.
Pot limit imo benefits those who have draws to big hands like flushes more than does no limit, simply becasue you cant push all in on a nasty flop. But, in that sense you cant lose all your chips on one hand (well rarely anyway)
Pot limit taught me about drawing to better hands against made hands, something which changes staggeringly when you begin to play no limit. Also i leant how to read players and put them on cards because of the way people bet eg someone with the best hand bets the pot while drawers dont. I found this an invaluable tool.
Yet if you have a good bankrole and are willing maybe to learn and pay a fee to learn then play cheap sng's. You get lots of chips to start and your only commiting a small portion of you bankrole in any game. Plus, as you'll find, you need to see a lot of cards before you even begin to understand the game which you will get in sngs. Similarily try cheap buy in mtts and try to learn what a tight game is and play it there. Again you will get to see a lot of situations hopefully for a cheap price.
I found that only when i had an idea of what my personal game was, and i'd read every single post on this site 3 times was i ready to try cash tables. Only my opinion though.
