Machiko really did do an affair, but it was a one-time thing and that in that one moment where it is shown that she did cheat, she was digging her head into the pillow, obviously showing that she regrets what she had done. In many of the flashbacks, it is shown that Machiko truly loves Takashi, and that the affair was sort of a spur of the moment due to stress or some shit, but the baby was obviously hers and Takashi's, not the affiar guy's. Since Machiko won the game accidentally, Takashi had a mental breakdown and became paranaoid. After Machiko pointed out that they were dead, she probably also realized what the implications to the winners and losers of the game would lead to, so she acted out to that she never really loved Takashi, and was only after his money, which is obviously just a lie, a ploy so that she would come out as the bad guy and be sent to Hell instead of Takashi, the one who caused their death. Both of them had faults in that Takashi was too untrusting of his wife and that Machiko was tempted into having an affair. On Machiko's part, if she had laid out everything onto the table from the very beggining, the affair issue that really did happen would be cleared up, and Takashi would know that Machiko truly does love him and that she regrets having the affair.
