After 2 checks of the French Villain, I decided to push because I think 2 checks and espcially after a check-behind of me, is extremely weak and he is basically signalling '''I don't got anything, please rob me!''.
Therefore I went all-in.
I do not really like to auto-push here on the flop with 2 overcards so I tend to play it differently with checking-behind and see what the turncard brings + he does.
