Try:
bdteste=# SELECT o1.user_id, o1.order_id, '>= 500' AS cond FROM Orders o1
bdteste-# WHERE (SELECT sum(o2.amount_paid) FROM Orders o2 WHERE
o2.user_id = o1.user_id AND o2.order_id > o1.order_id) < 500 AND
bdteste-# (SELECT sum(o2.amount_paid) FROM Orders o2 WHERE
o2.user_id = o1.user_id AND o2.order_id >= o1.order_id) >=500
bdteste-# UNION
bdteste-# SELECT user_id, min(order_id) AS "min order id", '< 500' AS
cond FROM Orders
bdteste-# WHERE user_id IN (SELECT user_id FROM Orders GROUP BY
user_id HAVING sum(amount_paid) < 500)
bdteste-# GROUP BY user_id;user_id | order_id | cond
---------+----------+-------- 1 | 2 | >= 500 2 | 3 | < 500
