'''Pound V''' was a ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' national tournament hosted in Arlington, Virginia, United States from February 19th-21st, 2011, hosted by {{Sm|Plank}} and {{Sm|TheTantalus}}. This tournament drew significant controversy after the tournament director, Plank, [http://smashboards.com/posts/12313739/ announced] that he would be unable to pay out most of the top finishers due to financial issues he came across when hosting the tournament. The only players who were paid at the time were {{Sm|Laijin}} and {{Sm|Cheese}}, who won the Amateur Singles brackets for ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'', respectively, and had gotten the cash directly from Plank after the tournament. Nearly ten thousand dollars of prize money was lost, and the incident heavily stained the reputation of Plank, leading to Plank having been the only TO to have ever been placed on [http://smashboards.com/threads/tournament-organizer-blacklist.299170/ Smashboard's tournament organizer blacklist], as well as a hiatus of the Pound tournament series for nearly three years until [[Pound V.5]] (which then was on a much smaller scale than the previous prestigious Pound tournaments).
