5 times, hidden in Acrostic form.
The Masorites hid HIS name to nail down HIS true name. YHVH.
That's why I ask for serious bible students and scholars.

I stumbled across this question rather late, however, I can tell you the tetragrammaton occurs much more than four times in the Book of Esther. Actually, it occurs 66 times; however, these hidden references were not added by the Masoretes, they were embedded there by God Himself.

Jeff had the answer with the quickness. But is this the sort of thing most bible studies cover? If so what a waste.

None. It is the only book of the 66 not to.

the name of God (YHWH) or even the word "EL" is never mentioned in the book of Esther.
