Stake raised in volcano (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

etna

'volcano' is the definition.
(Mount Etna)

'stake raised' is the wordplay.
'stake' becomes 'ante' (stake in poker).
'raised' is a reversal indicator (going up in a down clue).
'ante' in reverse letter order is 'ETNA'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for etna that I've seen before include "Impressive mount" , "From a dangerous height" , "Dangerous peak" , "Threatening mountain" , "Sicilian landmark" .)
