    Use a LIKE statement such as:

    SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE user_id LIKE 'asd%'

    The % is a wild card, so that would work if you’re looking for a string that starts with asd, otherwise, if you’re just looking for asd anywhere in the string:

    SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE user_id LIKE '%asd%'
