If you get lucky: Once is plenty. Most people try abit more to cover their bets. I recommend every other day around ovulation but every day is okay too. More than once a day is unnecessary and probably counterproductive.

Just one time: If you are sure when you are going to ovulate, withholding sex for a couple of days before may increase sperm count and chance of conception.
