What a heel.
A wealthy hedge-fund boss is suing his poker-pro ex-wife for a reason that would be like a stiletto to the heart of any pump-crazy New York gal — her shoe collection.
Daniel Shak claims Beth Shak never told him about her stockpile of 1,200 pairs of designer shoes when they divorced three years ago.
The finance titan, who had shared a Fifth Avenue pad with Beth, claims that she hid the collection from him — possibly in a “secret room” — and that its value may entitle him to hundreds of thousands of dollars more in their divorce settlement.
In addition to her fame as a World Series of Poker player, Beth is known as one of the world’s top footwear aficionados. Her collection has been featured in media outlets from The Post to MTV’s Cribs.
She even has an image of a Christian Louboutin stiletto tattooed on a private area of her body.
Yesterday, she told The Post Daniel would have to have been the most clueless hubby ever to be unaware of her hobby.
“I’m shaking my head over this whole thing,” Beth said. “He is saying he didn’t know the closet in our master bedroom existed.”
Daniel claims he found out about her shoes only last year.
“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,” his suit says.
“Dan trusted his wife and was not inspecting his home to try to find inventory or ‘secret rooms.’ ”
He’s asking a court near their old family home in suburban Philadelphia for an accounting of her shoes, a source said.
He estimates her collection at $1 million and says he’s due at least 35 percent of that.
Daniel, who runs SHK Asset Management, reportedly lost millions in the gold market last year. A poker lover himself, he was reached at a card table yesterday but declined to comment.
Beth has said her collection includes 700 pairs of shoes by the designer Christian Louboutin. “To me, his shoes are like fine art,” she told The Post last year.
