In the heart of bustling Hong Kong, a unique cultural experience awaits: the thrill of playing Ping Pong Pinball machines outside vibrant stationery shops. These shops, brimming with colorful pens, stacks of notebooks, and artistic supplies, often feature these captivating machines as a draw for young and old alike.

A Ping Pong Pinball machine.

At a Ping Pong Pinball machine, players can play a game with a $1 coin, potentially winning attractive prizes. In each game, the player pings 5 table tennis balls one by one, each independently and uniformly falling into one of the 5 vertical slots. At the end of the game, the player will be awarded the basic prize if four balls land in a single row (either horizontally or vertically), or the grand prize if all five balls land in a single row (either horizontally or vertically).

You are now observing Alice playing the game outside a stationery shop. After Alice pinged the first 3 balls, you noted down the current distribution of balls across the five vertical slots. You are now wondering whether it is still possible for Alice to win the basic prize and/or the grand prize by (luckily) pinging the 2 remaining balls.
