I do chest twice a week. 8 sets for my first workout, 5 for my second. All heavy. Going for strength. I currently bench 350 at 183lb bodyweight. Going for 400lb bench.
 
I'm currently on an abbreviated training routine.I hit chest once every 5-7 days.One exercise;bottom-position bench presses.I warm up with 3 progressively heavier sets of 5.Do 3 max singles using the same poundage for all three sets.Cut the weight back by 50 ibs, then do 3 sets of 5.Training for strength, I find 1 exercise performed with many sets to work well.I'd say my chest development is fair, but I'm not training for development, I'm training for strength.
 
I do chest 2 times a week
Day 1:
Incline Dumbell 4x 12 10 10 8
Cable Crossovers 4x 15 12 10 8

Day 2:
Flat Barbell Bench 5x5
 
Chest every 6 days:

Flat Dumbell Presses - 2 sets to concentric failure (every 4-6 weeks I switch these up with the barbell)
Dumbell Flyes on a Stability Ball - 2 sets to concentric failure
Weighted Dips - 1 set to concentric failure

I'm contemplating either switching the dips with some moderate decline presses or just adding them into my rountine.

...so 5 sets in total every 6 days.

Chest once a week: 1)3-sets incline 10-8-6
2)3-sets flat 10-8-6
3)3-sets decline 10-8-6
4)3-sets wide 10-10-10-lighter weight burn\pumpset
5)3-sets neck presses
6)3-sets cables upper\lower
Weight, strength,and size going up!
 
Work up to a heavy triple on mondays followed by two high rep (20) sets of incline db, 2 or 3 sets of incline bb on wednesdays with 4 sets dips and 2 sets high rep pullovers. Then work up to a heavy set of 5 on fridays with 3 more sets of dips and 2 sets of high rep pullovers. Pullovers and dips they are not direct chest but give me a good pump and make my chest ache the next day. My chest is getting huge!
 
I do chest once a week and only do 10 sets but one of them sets is a worm up set... It was not untill I changed my chest workout that I started to get stronger and my max started to go way up... So all that said it seems to work really well for me
