\"\"<\/a>In a story that seems better suited for The Onion or a Saturday Night Live skit, former poker couple Dan and Beth Shak are in a bitter post-divorce battle over a massive shoe collection. Getting into the specifics, Beth Shak has around 1,200 designer label shoes that are collectively worth $1 million. If you’re doing the math, that’s an average of $833 per pair of shoes!<\/p>\n

Apparently, Dan Shak wasn’t happy when he heard about how much the shoes were worth because they weren’t included in the divorce settlement. Considering the fact that he thinks the $1 million in shoes could’ve given him at least another $350k in the divorce, Dan has chosen to take Beth to court. An excerpt from his lawsuit that was printed in the New York Post<\/a> reads as follows:<\/p>\n

In the summer of 2011, Daniel became aware that Beth owned and failed to disclose an extensive . . . collection of Christian Louboutin shoes . . . and other high-end designer shoes and bags.\u00a0Dan trusted his wife and was not inspecting his home to try to find inventory or secret rooms.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The thing that really sticks out here is how Dan Shak is trying to say that Beth hid the shoes in a secret room. She responded to this thinly-veiled accusation by saying, “I’m shaking my head over this whole thing. He is saying he didn\u2019t know the closet in our master bedroom existed.”<\/p>\n

On the surface, it doesn’t seem like either member of this former couple is doing too well. Beth claims to be a poker pro – despite not having cashed in a tourney since 2010 – while Dan saw his hedge fund company, SHK Asset Management, lose millions of dollars after the gold market plummeted. And the shoe lawsuit is just the couple’s latest debacle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
