Thanks much people !
i didn't think i will get the aswers so fast
The film is in the scanner already... :) i've used the web site's
formula to develop it (multiply by 1.4 as GrayWolf noticed)
So it was 8:30 minutes in the developer and the results looks pretty good.
Thanks a lot again !

That makes a lot of sense to me.
I agonised over trying to see the difference between the zone
system N+1 development and simple push processing.
My final opinion was that there wasn't any difference.
You're simply trying to get the best possible result from an
'improperly' exposed negative.
Michael: My Tri-X data sheet states that Tri-X has enough
latitude that a one stop underexposure requires *NO*
additional development time to compensate.
If it were me however, I would give it 10-20 percent longer
time just to bump the contrast up a bit.

Tech stuff: While most folks speak of pushing to increase film
speed, you are not actually doing that. What underexposure does
is reduce contrast AND film latitude. By overdevloping you are
increasing the contrast, but you have already lost the latitude
and the shadow detail is gone. If that is acceptable in your
final image pushing will work for that image.
