What's MySQL query for "match at least 5 of the 6 phrases" - Vyktochr - 08-05-2014

The user searches for #ham #cat #meme
It can't find all three so it needs to check to see if at least two can find a match.
I can create a combination of && and || statements, but I don't think that is the most efficient way.

is there a way to check to see if 2 tags are matched?

I would have recommended && and || statements, but I agree. There are probably better ways. Maybe someone else knows.
