London, England (prsafe) January 16, 2012 - The Masters will be streamed live from Alexandra Palace this year with the top 16 players in action. Livestreamingsport.com shows snooker fans how to watch The Masters Snooker live stream free of charge at licensed streaming sites such as Bet365.

The Masters is deemed to be snooker's most prestigious invitational event and for the first time ever the tournament will be held at the famous Alexandra Palace.

The journalists at Livestreamingsport.com will provide snooker fans with the latest news from the tables at Alexandra Palace, which will include previews and the places where you can watch The Masters Live Stream free online.

The competition will run from Sunday, January 15 until Sunday, January 22 and will feature an elite field of the world's best 16 players with defending champion Ding Junhui eager to retain his title.

The players looking to push Ding Junhui all the way are Ronnie O'Sullivan, Mark Williams, Stephen Maguire, Judd Trump, Stuart Bingham, Shaun Murphy, Martin Gould, John Higgins, Matthew Stevens, Neil Robertson, Mark Allen, Mark Selby, Stephen Lee, Ali Carter and Graeme Dott.

Last year's final saw Chinese ace Ding produce a sublime performance to see off Hong Kong opponent Marco Fu 10-4 to take home the title in the first ever Masters final that featured two Asian players.

This year The Masters will be held at Alexandra Palace instead of Wembley Arena after World Snooker Chairman Barry Hearn secured a deal in a bid to give the sport a new lease of life.

Hearn said: "The Alexandra Palace is an absolutely fantastic venue, as we've found by staging the World Darts Championship there. We've seen record ticket sales for the darts and I'm expecting to see the same for the snooker. When it's packed out, the atmosphere in the place is electric, and I can't wait to see snooker played under those conditions because that's what The Masters is all about.

"We're keeping the event in London but the players are going to experience something new and wonderful. There's a great team in place at Alexandra Palace and we look forward to working with them again."
