Take this tst.md file (in Markdown)
% Test document
<table>
<thead>
<tr >
<th>A</td>
<th>B</td>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr >
<td>1</td>
<td>2</td>
</tr>
<tr >
<td>3</td>
<td>4</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
End of test file
and run it with pandoc 1.13.2 to transform it into html
pandoc -s "test.md" -o test.html
The created test.html contains
<table>
<pre><code><thead>
<tr >
<th>A</td>
<th>B</td>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr >
<td>1</td>
<td>2</td>
</tr>
<tr >
<td>3</td>
<td>4</td>
</tr>
</tbody></code></pre>
</table>
A <pre><code>
tag is inserted after <table>
. The following html code is encoded and displays as code not as a table.
The pandoc website says: Standard markdown allows you to include HTML “blocks”: blocks of HTML between balanced tags that are separated from the surrounding text with blank lines, and start and end at the left margin. Within these blocks, everything is interpreted as HTML, not markdown;
The same result comes out if you do on Pandoc's trial site http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/try
The older version 1.11.1 worked fine. But 1.11.1 is no longer available on Pandoc's website (as a MSI installer).
What did I do wrong ?

You reference the section for the markdown_in_html_blocks
extension, which is clearly says that Pandoc Markdown doesn't behave this way by default:
Pandoc behaves this way when the
markdown_strict
format is used; but by default, pandoc interprets material between HTML block tags as markdown.
Use the strict input format by adding -f markdown_strict
to your command.

Tried it with all tags to the left (no indentation) which works on the trial site and with pandoc 1.13.2. It seems that pandoc 1.13.2 requires total absence indentation in raw html where as in previous versions html would stay raw if the first (and last) tag had no spaces or tab before.
