'Raise the stakes' = tăng tiền cược -> tăng mức độ nguy hiểm hoặc phần thưởng tiềm năng trong trường hợp cụ thể nào đó.

Ví dụ
Ziraat Bank, Turkey’s largest bank by assets, has stopped offering services to Venezuela’s Central Bank in wake of tougher U.S. sanctions (trừng phạt) that raise the stakes for companies that do business with the Caribbean nation.

But with Washington determined to maintain the economic pressure on Iran, the Americans had little choice but to raise the stakes by making a legal challenge to Gibraltar’s decision on Thursday – a policy denounced (lên án) by Iran’s foreign minister, Mohammad Javad Zarif as “economic terrorism”.

Fast 8 saw Tyrese Gibson’s character drive a Lamborghini on ice while his friends attempted to outmaneuver a torpedo. You know they need to raise the stakes in Fast 9. But what can they do that has not already been done? They have driven supercars through skyscrapers. Dom killed a chopper with a freaking car.
