I think MOBI has very limited support for HTML tables. It also has a limited support of CSS. It certainly is not as robust as ePub.
@fivebells, But regardless, tables are going to be problematic on any small screen device in any format. There just isn't enough room to place more than a few columns on the screen. And even with say only three columns, the text has to be really small and/or the text wraps so often as to make the table look ugly.
If possible, I suggest rewriting the tabled information into a non-tabled format.
