Select previous row mysql?

Question

If I have a mysql table which had primary ids and another field called gameScore can I do something along the lines of...

SELECT gameScore FROM table1 WHERE id =         


        

Answer 1

You're looking for the second lowest score, right? Like Craig mentioned, limit sounds like the right way to go:

SELECT 
  gameScore 
FROM 
  table1 
WHERE 
  id = 100 
ORDER BY 
  gameScore ASC 
limit 1,1
