Select from row to last row

Is it possible for me with MySQL to select the from a specific row to the end of the table, without knowing how many rows there are left?

My query at the moment is:

SELECT * FROM updates WHERE userid='$fid' ORDER BY up_id DESC

But I want to be able to something like:

SELECT * FROM updates WHERE userid='$fid' ORDER BY up_id DESC LIMIT '$myRow' to EndOfTable

Can this be done?

Answer

Just use a large value like 999999999 that is going to be bigger than the table. So:

limit $myRow, 999999999

Although less popular, I prefer the syntax:

limit 999999999 offset $myrow
