Use \placetable with the keywords “none” to disabled the counter/caption and “split” to enable page breaks.

\starttext

\input knuth

\startplacetable[location={none,split}]
	\starttabulate [|p(.5\textwidth)|p(.2\textwidth)|]
	\dorecurse{4}{
		\NC 
		Nu laat ik je iets zien in een tabel, die met tabulate gemaakt is. \NC Het is overigens maar een experiment, maar we zullen zien wat er gebeurt. {\bf And I want all this to be centered.} \NC \NR
		\NR
		\NC Als dit werkt, dan gaan we heel fanatiek hiermee verder. \NC Dan gaan we allerlei prachtige zaken in ConTeXt zetten, met XeTeX. \NC \NR
		\NR}
	\stoptabulate
\stopplacetable

\stoptext
